<p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[Category:Linux]]<br />
===Mounting Webdav (Linux)===<br />
A nice script can be found here: [http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/synchronisieren-mit-rsync-webdav-server/#post-2060920]. And an Ubuntu Howto here: [http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/webdav]<br />
<br />
My solution is a bit different, not requiring root permissions<br />
sudo apt-get install ca-certificates davfs2<br />
sudo dpkg-reconfigure davfs2<br />
# --> Enter yes<br />
sudo mkdir /media/gmx-mc<br />
sudo chown torben:torben /media/gmx-mc<br />
#Add user to group davfs2 <br />
sudo adduser torben davfs2 <br />
in /ets/fstab add<br />
https://mediacenter.gmx.net /media/gmx-mc davfs noauto,user,rw,uid=torben,gid=torben 0 0<br />
<br />
The Error "File exists" on writing files can in Ubuntu be fixed by editing /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf and adding<br />
if_match_bug 1<br />
<br />
<br />
===Accessing Horde Calendar on Webdav===<br />
* we first use a dialog to ask for the password<br />
* than cadever is used for uploading (overwriting) a file (calendar)<br />
<br />
TEMPFILE=`tempfile`<br />
dialog --title "Passwords"\<br />
--insecure --passwordbox "tmenke@Horde" 10 50\<br />
2>$TEMPFILE<br />
<br />
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then<br />
echo " ==> uploading joined calendar"<br />
HORDE_PASSWD=`cat $TEMPFILE`<br />
rm $TEMPFILE<br />
# write login data into .netrc for cadaver<br />
echo -en "machine my.mailserver.de\nlogin torben\npasswd $HORDE_PASSWD" > ~/.netrc<br />
echo -e "put /home/torben/.kde/share/apps/korganizer/cal.ics torben.ics" | cadaver https://my.mailserver.de/horde/ rpc.php/kronolith/torben/<br />
rm ~/.netrc # !!!<br />
