webDav and SFTP failure
#1
I can't for the life of me get WebDAV or SFTP to work on Kodi. I'm currently running the latest version of OpenElec (5.0.8) on a Model b raspberry pi (first gen).


SFTP and WebDav are both setup correctly, as I have no problem connecting to either from Windows or Mac machines. When I try to do sftp with kodi, I get

Code:
Oct 11 19:45:50 xander sshd[15720]: Connection closed by 190.83.244.242 [preauth]
.

I've SSH'd into OpenElec, then SSH'd into the media box and it works fine. known_hosts now has the key in it aswell. I even went as far as doing the public key authentication and it still doesn't work.

As for WebDAV, i get the following in the access logs.

Code:
190.83.244.242 - - [11/Oct/2015:19:27:39 +0200] "GET /webdav HTTP/1.1" 401 759 "-" "Kodi/14.2 (X11; Linux armv6l) OpenELEC/5.0 HW_RaspberryPi/1.0 App_Bitness/32 Version/14.2-Git:7cc53a9"
190.83.244.242 - - [11/Oct/2015:19:27:39 +0200] "GET /webdav HTTP/1.1" 401 759 "-" "Kodi/14.2 (X11; Linux armv6l) OpenELEC/5.0 HW_RaspberryPi/1.0 App_Bitness/32 Version/14.2-Git:7cc53a9"

Currently the AuthType on Apache is set to Digest. I'd prefer not to have to change to basic as it would require setting up https.

As i said, the things above are working fine for all devices except the PI. It picks up my shared drives on the local network just fine, so not sure what the issue could be.


On an unrelated issue, my mac can't seem to find kodi on it's airplay devices. airplay is enabled.

Old thread, but I solved the WebDav issue.

Kodi doesn't support digest passwords for HTTP Auth. Not sure if this is a bug or has just been omitted, but it's something Kodi needs to implement. Basic auth is only suitable if it's over https.
