Proper way to set up WebDAV server?

Hi there,

I wanted to enable a WebDAV server to allow for synchronizing some documents from other software. So I created a new shared folder "wd" and gave access to my current user account.

However, as I tried to connect to address:
https://LAN_IP/wd, the Mac OS X Finder says there's a problem reaching the server

Not sure what's going on as there are no parameters in fvdw firmware to be set

Hi

First as you want to use https protocol, I assume you set it (so create the certificates) Menu System Management>Setup and tab : web server.
Later as you set a custom certificate signed by an unknown authority, you have to install the certificate authority on your mac (see: https://www.bounca.org/tutorials/install_root_certificate.html and if you use FF, you have to install it for this browser as it uses its own certificate chain)

Second point, do you have enable webdav service and selected the share wd ? Menu Web Tools>Webdav

There is no other setting to do on the nas side
