WebDAV is an alternative method of transferring files to your Network Folder from your computer via a web browser using HTTP/HTTPS, instead of using a Secure File Transfer Protocol (sftp) application such as SSH. However, an SFTP application is recommended for Windows Vista, Windows7, and MacOS X users.

Before you begin

To configure a WebDAV connection, you will need to have available:

1. Your HSU User Name (the part of your campus email address before the @ symbol).
   You will need to include the domain name with your login in the format HSU-AD\user name

   

   If you do not know your HSU User Name, you can find it by logging into the Account Center and clicking "Personal Information." You can also contact the Technology Help Desk at (707) 826-4357.
    

2. The server address - https://users.humboldt.edu
