Hmmm. WebDAV? What's missing?
WebDAV probably has enough features for this. I've just never
seen it used in this way.
- Can a user anonymously and easily mount a webdav remote file system as a file system under each of linux, macos, windows?
- Are there GUI interfaces to that permit operations on multiple files at once (identified by patterns and/or a picker) on webdav remote file systems?
- Are there robust, readily available, open source programs available to access webdav URLs that support scripting from a shell or other command interpreter?
- Will webdav work in the presence of likely firewall
configurations?
None of these should require administrative/root permission from
the client system.
(repeat the above questions for NFS and any other supposed FTP replacement)
