Linux


For Linux and UNIX variants that don’t have native support for WebDAV, you can use davfs or other solutions for mounting Air Sharing. Gnome and KDE have built-in support for WebDAV.

 


Connecting Securely with SSL

Air Sharing supports secure SSL connections.



WebDAV Address Prefix

Linux WebDAV implementations tend not to use http:// as the prefix for WebDAV addresses. So when you follow the steps below to enter your IP address, you should substitute the correct prefix. Rather than http://, GNOME’s Nautilus File Browser expects dav:// while KDE’s Konqueror expects webdav://
If you do not have Bonjour (or any other form of Zerocong) installed, you may want to install it. On GNOME, you can install the nss-mdns package. The advantage of using the Bonjour address is that it will always be the same, whereas the IP address may change from one day to the next.]

 

GNOME

Recent versions of GNOME’s Nautilus File Browser have WebDAV support. To connect, make sure Air Sharing is running, and follow these steps:
Invoke Connect to Server.


Enter Air Sharing’s IP address. Alternatively, if Bonjour has been installed, you may enter Air Sharing’s Bonjour address.
In either case, use dav:// rather than http://


If you connect that way, GNOME will create a mount point, and an icon on the desktop. Alternatively, you can select Applications > System Tools > File Browser, and then in the Location Bar, type Air Sharing’s IP address.

KDE

In KDE, you can connect to Air Sharing by typing the Air Sharing address into the Konqueror Address Bar. Use webdav:// rather than http://
