Hi guys!

I'm trying to create a WebDAV server that shares a NFS mount from my NAS. In short, I'm trying to create/share a backup folder in my NAS so my Graphene phone can run the backup.

How can I do this? All the guides mention about sharing /var/www/webdav and chrooting it. How can I share my own folder? Does it need to be /var/www/webdav? Can I share something else instead? Should I just link my NAS mount to /var/www/webdav?

Thanks!

Thanks! But...where is the folder specified there? I can only see the temp client body path, but I'm not sure that's where files will be uploaded.

Sorry here’s a better tutorial. I might write one, it is interesting that they all suck in different ways.

The folder is defined by the “root” directive. Like with any other nginx setup.
