Default: false
- _Description: Should unprovileged users be allowed to mount WebDAV resources?
+ _Description: Should unprivileged users be allowed to mount WebDAV resources?
<kc> Simple spelling mistake.
.
Choosing this option is discouraged for security reasons. If you
- choose it, more details will be required.

<kc> Personal preference.

- Otherwise, only root will be allowed to mount WebDAV resources. This can
- later be changed by running 'dpkg-reconfigure davfs2'.
+ If you do not choose this option, only root will be allowed to mount WebDAV

<kc> Again, personal preference. I just like to make things very,

<kc> choices.

Type: string
Default: davfs2
_Description: User running the mount.davfs daemon:

#flag:translate!:3,5
_Description: Unprivileged users allowed to mount WebDAV resources
The "${group_name}" group and the "${user_name}" user will be used by
davfs2. All users who should be granted the right to mount WebDAV

+ resources should be added to the group "${group_name}" using the
+ following command:
<kc> Just additional clarification.
usermod -a -G ${group_name} <username>

The following should also be added to /etc/fstab:

.
