1und1 Smartdrive under Ubuntu 10.10 – Maverick

November 30th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

It has taken me some time to get the 1und1 Smartdrive to work correctly under Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick through webdav. Capturing the steps here, to remind myself and share with the community.
Most of this info is created by testing, trial and error, using pieces of information found on the internet and the man pages.

1) Install davfs2 (via synaptic or command line: sudo apt-get install davfs2)
2) Allow users to mount by setting this option through this program
   "sudo dpkg-reconfigure davfs2"
3) Create folder /media/1und1 (sudo mkdir /media/1und1)
4) Edit /etc/fstab by adding this line
   https://sd2dav.1und1.de /media/1und1 davfs user,noauto,rw 0 0
5) Edit /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf, changing the following line:
   a) from: # ignore_home                      # system wide config file only
      to:   ignore_home kernoops               # system wide config file only
   b) from: # if_match_bug    0
      to:   if_match_bug    1
6) Edit /etc/davfs2/secrets, adding the line with credentials
   https://sd2dav.1und1.de         kaxxxx-xxx@online.de    your-password
7) Add yourself to the user-group davfs2
   (System -> Administration -> Users and Groups)

You can now mount /media/1und1 to your 1und1 Smartdrive as user
