cadaver − A command−line WebDAV client for Unix.
cadaver [-trp[-r file][-p host[:port]]][-V][-h] http://hostname[:port]/path
cadaver supports file upload, download, on-screen display, namespace operations (move and copy), collection creation and deletion, and locking operations.
Its operation is similar to the standard BSD ftp(1) client and the Samba Project’s smbclient(1). A user familiar with these tools should be quite comfortable with cadaver.
cadaver supports automatically logging in to servers requiring authentication via a .netrc file (similar to ftp(1) - see section "THE .netrc FILE" below).
-t, --tolerant
Allow cd/open into non-WebDAV enabled collection; use if the server or proxy server has WebDAV compliance problems.
-r, --rcfile=file
Use this rcfile rather than the default of ˜/.cadaverrc
-p, --proxy=host[:port]
Connect using the proxy host "host" and optional proxy port "port".
-V, --version
Display version information and exit.
-h, --help
Display this help message and exit.

The file ˜/.netrc may be used to automatically login to a server requiring authentication. The following tokens (separated by spaces, tabs or newlines) may be used:
machine host
Identify a remote machine host which is compared with the hostname given on the command line or as an argument to the open command. Any subsequent tokens up to the end of file or the next machine or default token are associated with this entry.
default
This is equivalent to the machine token but matches any hostname. Only one default token may be used and it must be after all machine tokens.
login username
Specifies the username to use when logging in to the remote machine.
password
string
passwd string
Specifies the password to use when logging in to the remote machine.
Any other tokens (as described in ftp(1)) are ignored.
cadaver http://dav.example.com/
Connects to the server myserver.example.com, opening the root collection.
cadaver http://zope.example.com:8022/Users/fred/
Connects to the server zope.example.com using port 8022, opening the collection "/Users/fred/".
cadaver https://secure.example.com/
Connects to a server called secure.example.com using SSL.
˜/.cadaverrc
Individual user settings that can override cadaver defaults and to script cadaver. Can be changed by the "--rcfile" option.
˜/.netrc
