# Accompanying Clients
There are a number of webdav clients.
There are a number of [webdav clients](http://www.webdav.org/projects/).
## ChromeOS
For my specific use case, I am working with ChromeOS and there is a [WebDAV Storage Provider](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/webdav-file-system/hmckflbfniicjijmdoffagjkpnjgbieh?hl=en).
## Linux
For Linux hosts, there is a package commonly `davfs2`, that provides a `mount.davfs` command.
See `mount.davfs(8)` man page for more information.
Basic example:
```bash
[vbatts@valse] {master} ~$ sudo mount.davfs https://bananaboat.usersys:9999/ ./x
Please enter the username to authenticate with server
https://bananaboat.usersys:9999/ or hit enter for none.
Username: vbatts
Please enter the password to authenticate user vbatts with server
https://bananaboat.usersys:9999/ or hit enter for none.
Password:
mount.davfs: the server certificate is not trusted
issuer: Acme Co
subject: Acme Co
identity: localhost
fingerprint: ce:19:a6:e7:0a:85:c2:01:fb:71:a6:bf:dd:56:3a:47:30:a8:7a:37
You only should accept this certificate, if you can
verify the fingerprint! The server might be faked
or there might be a man-in-the-middle-attack.
Accept certificate for this session? [y,N] y
[vbatts@valse] {master} ~$ ls x/file

[vbatts@valse] {master} ~$ cat x/file
