Feature description

The only feature I miss at Fossify File-Manager is the option to use remote WebDAV accounts like in RCX which is not updated since about 3 years.

Why do you want this feature?

Sometimes I will exchange date between my 1&1 free Cloud via https://user:[email protected]/. According my knowladge this should also work with Nextcloud as well.

I support this feature request.

DAVx5 will make the mount,

and File-Manager can access the mount without access to internet.

Not sure if this would require another feature request, but supporting other protocols like nfs/cifs/smb.

Such feature would make File Manger a one stop shop for those that mount their own nas or remote server.

Taking it a step further adding cloud support, but can totally understand not wanting cloud support, but the other stuff 👍

Voting +1 for remote network things. Like ssh/WebDAV/smb
