Both the client and the server need to use rclone, and the operating system for both is Windows. After downloading, just unzip and use it.
To start the WebDAV service on the server, you only need to open the CMD and enter one command.
rclone.exe serve webdav F:\sharedDir --addr :8088 --user jack --pass ttt54
It means to start the webdav service, the shared directory is 'F:\sharedDir', the port is 8088, the username is jack, and the password is ttt54
The client needs to configure first, open cmd in the rclone folder and enter the following command to make a new configuration
rclone.exe config
Enter the server's IP:port step by step according to the prompts, for example 123.123.123.123:8088, along with the username and password. Then just save the configuration and exit.
