NAME

6       cadaver - A command-line WebDAV client for Unix.
7

SYNOPSIS

9       cadaver [-et][-V][-h] http://hostname[:port]/path
10

DESCRIPTION

12       cadaver  supports  file  upload, download, on-screen display, namespace
13       operations (move and copy), collection creation and deletion, and lock‐
14       ing operations.
15
16       Its  operation  is  similar  to  the standard BSD ftp(1) client and the
17       Samba Project's smbclient(1).  A user familiar with these tools  should
18       be quite comfortable with cadaver.
19
20       cadaver  supports automatically logging in to servers requiring authen‐
21       tication via a .netrc file (similar to ftp(1) - see section "THE .netrc
22       FILE" below).

THE .netrc FILE

137       The file ~/.netrc may be  used  to  automatically  login  to  a  server
138       requiring  authentication.  The  following tokens (separated by spaces,
139       tabs or newlines) may be used:
140
141       machine host
142              Identify a remote machine host which is compared with the  host‐
143              name  given  on  the  command line or as an argument to the open
144              command.  Any subsequent tokens up to the end  of  file  or  the
145              next machine or default token are associated with this entry.
146
147       default
148              This  is  equivalent  to the machine token but matches any host‐
149              name. Only one default token may be used and it  must  be  after
150              all machine tokens.
151
152       login username
153              Specifies  the  username  to  use  when logging in to the remote
154              machine.
155
156       password string
157       passwd string
158              Specifies the password to use when  logging  in  to  the  remote
159              machine.
160
161       Any other tokens (as described in ftp(1)) are ignored.
