Nemo File Manager - Not holding WebDAV connection after logoff or reboot

Post by DadOfRCA »

Hi,

I've successfully connected to my Synology NAS WebDAV server using Nemo, "File > Connect to Server". I saved the password so "Remember Password" is checked. When I log off, or reboot, the connection I just made is gone.

Any ideas on how I can get that to say after a reboot?


Thank you for the help...

I guess you would have to create a startup script that executes those commands "File > Connect to server" upon login, and add that to Startup Applications. But I have no idea how to write such a script.

Gigolo.

This is a very old HowTo and it is focused on samba but gigolo can do WebDAV as well: viewtopic.php?f=42&t=52144

You can set this up to have gigolo mount at login automatically.

I was able to get this to work, and stays connected after a reboot. :)

I simply mount my synology shares via fstab so they appear in the filesystem.
