WebDAV (Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning) is a set of extensions to the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) that enable user agents to collaboratively author contents directly in an HTTP web server by providing facilities for concurrency control and namespace operations, allowing the Web to be viewed as a writeable, collaborative medium rather than just a read-only medium.

For added convenience, you can mount your seedbox filesystem on your local device using WebDAV. Let us demonstrate how you can accomplish this.

Note: Please keep in mind that this is currently only available on our Premium seedboxes.

Open your Client Area and from there go to your seedbox services, and you need to grab the IP of your seedbox

Your webdav host is dav-45-136-229-130.a.seedbox.vip

After you have the WEBDAV URL as shown above depending on what Desktop Environment (DE) you use you can open your File Manager and look for Add Network Folder or something similar.

I'm using KDE Plasma (DE) so I got the Dolphin File Manager.

Choose WebDAV and click Next

Fill in the information :

You will now need to supply your user password.

And there you are, connected.

If you're using the Gnome DE, you probably have the Nautilus File Manager and the same steps apply here as well. The webdav url is davs://dav-45-136-229-130.a.seedbox.vip (Note: we use DAVS protocol, the encrypted version of DAV)

And here's your mounted WebDAV share.

Last but not least, there's also a CLI method of doing this, by using the cadaver utility

And then

When mounting a WebDav share on Windows 10/11 (which is most commonly used) you can easily do it by opening either the Windows Terminal or just PowerShell and typing the next

Note: You can use any available letter instead of Z: . That's used just to tell the system that you want to mount the share under the Z: path.

Then you can open the File Manager and access/manage the share directly from there-

if you want to disconnect you can right-click on it and click Disconnect.

Coming soon...!

I don't know what to do next...
