Hi.. Is there a way to get davfs2 on the server..
This way i can connect to transip stack to make continuous backups..

Hi

davfs2 is a driver to allow to mount a remote webdav.

So do you mean you have a webdav server on your LAN or remotely and you want to mount this ressource on your 5big2 ?
What will be a nice feature

Yes. well sort off.
I want to mount a webdav server onto the 5big2 however the server is not in my network.
The webdav server is from transip.nl where i have 1Tb large diskspace to sync files to.

It is called transip stack.

attached davfs2 version 1.5.5 compiled with prefix /usr

Tar archive must be unpacked in system root

---edit---
Package will be soon available as an addon package

awesome gona try that right now.
It works it needs some extra things but it works... Thank you so much !!!

Hi

Indeed you need to edit davfs2.conf file for setting the options dav_user and dav_group as davfs2 linux user does not exist (you need to use 'nobody' instead) and also set your credentials in secrets file

You should also edit the option "cache_dir /var/cache/davfs2". With this default path, the cache is created on the firmware partition which is not a large partition and the firmware will never reset it.

So after enabling this option, set this path: cache_dir /var/log/davfs2
which will be reset at each nas rebooting

After that change all should be ok.

Note: after uncompressing the tar file you need to reboot the nas as permissions/owner are corrupted on some folders

How can I get this addon or could you reattach the archive with davfs2 ?
