1 Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV), an extension
2 to the HTTP-protocol, allows authoring of resources on a remote
3 web server.
4 Davfs2 provides the ability to access such resources like a typical
5 filesystem, allowing for use by standard applications with no
6 built-in support for WebDAV.
8 Davfs2 is designed to fully integrate into the filesystem semantics
9 of Unix-like systems (mount, umount, etc.). Davfs2 makes mounting
10 by unprivileged users as easy and secure as possible.
12 Davfs2 does extensive caching to make the file system responsive,
13 to avoid unnecessary network traffic and to prevent data loss, and
14 to cope for slow or unreliable connections.
16 Davfs2 will work with most WebDAV servers needing little or no
17 configuration.
