Setting up I(2) Drive WebDAV Server with davfs2 on Linux

1. Download and install the latest davfs2 Linux file system driver from http://dav.sourceforge.net

2. Create the mount point

mkdir /i2drive

3. Remote file systems should not be indexed, so you should exclude the /i2drive directory from the updatedb command:

edit /etc/cron.daily/slocate.cron and add the /i2drive directory in the list of exclude (the list after the -e option):

/usr/bin/updatedb -f "nfs,smbfs,ncpfs,proc,devpts" -e "/tmp,/var/tmp,/usr/tmp,/afs,/net,/i2drive"

4. Mount the I(2) Drive WebDAV Server

/usr/local/sbin/mount.davfs http://webdav.i2drive.com/ /i2drive -o username=<your_login>,password=<your_passwd>

5. You can now access your I(2) Drive from any application using the /i2drive mount point! You can cd to /i2drive and list files.

6. Unmount when finished.

umount /i2drive
