dav date

date [url]

The purpose of this command is to get the current date from a server and print it on stdout (http date format). This in useful in combination with the -U option for the list and get command.

The purpose of this command is to get the current date from a server and print it to stdout (HTTP date format). This in useful in combination with the -U option for the list and get command.

The url can be any http url. If no url is specified, the local time is used.

Example: incremental dav get

It is possible to download only resources, which are modified since a specified date. The date command allows you to easily store the date of the last get.

Encryption

The davutils programs have an integrated client-side encryption feature, that allows you to encrypt and decrypt on the fly with AES256 or AES128. To use this feature, the server must support WebDAV dead properties.

The tools support both, encryption of the resource content and encryption of the resource name. Each resource is encrypted separately. With activated name encryption, the actual resource name is random but the name used by the client is stored encrypted in WebDAV properties. This means, an attacker can see the directory structure and the file length, but can't see which files have the same name.

The tools support both, encryption of the resource content and encryption of the resource name. Each resource is encrypted separately. With activated name encryption, the actual resource name is disguised by a random name but the name used by the client is stored encrypted as a WebDAV property. This means, an attacker can see the directory structure and the file length, but can't guess the file names and in particular which files have the same name.

To enable encryption a key must be configured in $HOME/.dav/config.xml. A key must have a unique name. To access encrypted resources, all clients must configure the same key with the same name. Currently a key can only be loaded from a file and not generated from a password.

A configuration for a key looks like:

     <file>keys/mykey1</file>

The file path must be relative to $HOME/.dav/. In this example the file $HOME/.dav/keys/mykey1 is loaded.

To generate a key use dd on unix like systems.

To generate a key use dd on unix like systems. The following command generates a 256 bit (32 bytes) key for AES256 encryption.

dd if=/dev/random of=mykey1 bs=32 count=1

After a key is configured, you can enable encryption/decryption in two ways. You can use the dav option -c to enable encryption and specify your key with the -k option. The alternative is to enable encryption by default for a repository in the config.xml file.
