Seriously Windows 10, you cant mount Webdav with custom ports ?
-
Anybody tried to accomplish this ? I know I cause use WinSCP but why Windows sucks so much and failed to recognize this and push this forward.
I won't to be able to mount an secure HTTPS webdav with custom port, the support is build in Windows, why no support for custom ports.
Microsoft seems very behind when it comes to mounting drives. not to mention the stupid limitation when you want to mount 2 network drives using 2 user accounts is forbidden at the same time.

Microsoft is all about SMB. Why would they bother with WebDAV and even NFS?

Security. And I didn't mention NFS. Also I feel webdav is more open standards than SMB.

you can't just do IP:port when you map it?

Are they REALLY all about SMB? They've supported WebDAV for like 15 years and NFS for more than 20. MS is pretty dedicated to options. They also support SFTP drive mounting.

Also Linux supports like dozen of protocols, why they are allowed to support only one properly ?
-
If anyone is "all about" SMB, it's Apple who actually killed off their own protocol AND went through the effort of ripping out and disabling NFS so that only SMB would remain when Microsoft has put in a lot of effort to make sure that NFS and WebDAV are available.
(Apples does support WebDAV too, I realize.)

Isn't WebDAV and NFS supported for compatibility reasons nowadays?
SFTP support without the need for chocolatey or linux subsystem for Windows?

Microsoft can support different protocols if they want too. But would they?

Chocolatey is the official deployment method for some Windows components. RHEL doesn't support SFTP without the equivalent. SFTP support is full from Microsoft.

Windows Subsystem for Linux does not provide anything to Windows. No one means WSL when the day Windows does something. WSL is a VM. It's different from windows.

@scottalanmiller
I stand corrected. -
MS really isn't that bad about stuff. They have their faults, but by and large they are a pretty good vendor. Expensive, but they aren't all that bad.

Maybe Webdav doesn't swing that way and doesn't want to be mounted!!!
