Montar un Webdav en Debian

Installing WebDAV in debian

First install apache using the following command

#aptitude install apache2

Enable the WebDAV modules using the following commands

#a2enmod dav_fs

#a2enmod dav

Restart Apache server

#/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Creating A Virtual Host in Apache

Now create a default Apache vhost in the directory /var/www/webdav. We will modify the default Apache vhost configuration in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default. If you already have a vhost for which you’d like to enable WebDAV, you must adjust this tutorial to your situation.

First, we create the directory /var/www/webdav and make the Apache user (www-data) the owner of that directory

#mkdir -p /var/www/webdav

#chown www-data /var/www/webdav

Then we back up the default Apache vhost configuration (/etc/apache2/sites-available/default) and create our own one

#mv /etc/apache2/sites-available/default /etc/apache2/sites-available/default.original

#vi /etc/apache2/sites-available/default

NameVirtualHost *

ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/webdav

Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all



Restart Apache server

#/etc/init.d/apache2 reload

Configure The Virtual Host For WebDAV

Now we create the WebDAV password file /var/www/webdav/passwd.dav with the user test

#htpasswd -c /var/www/webdav/passwd.dav testnew

You will be asked to type in a password for the user testnew

Now we change the permissions of the /var/www/webdav/passwd.dav file so that only root and the members of the www-data group can access it

#chown root:www-data /var/www/webdav/passwd.dav

#chmod 640 /var/www/webdav/passwd.dav

Now we modify our vhost in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and add the following lines to it

#vi /etc/apache2/sites-available/default

Alias /webdav /var/www/webdav


DAV On
AuthType Basic
AuthName “webdav”
AuthUserFile /var/www/webdav/passwd.dav
Require valid-user


The Alias directive makes (together with ) that when you call /webdav, WebDAV is invoked, but you can still access the whole document root of the vhost.

Reload Apache server

#/etc/init.d/apache2 reload

Testing your WebDAV

We will now install cadaver,cadaver is a command-line WebDAV client for Unix. It supports file upload, download, on-screen display, namespace operations (move/copy), collection creation and deletion, and locking operations.

#apt-get install cadaver

To test if WebDAV works use the following command

#cadaver http://localhost/webdav/

You should be prompted for a user name. Type in test and then the password for the user testnew. If all goes well, you should be granted access which means WebDAV is working ok. Type quit to leave the WebDAV shell.
