nd is a command line tool to issue queries to a WebDAV server.

WebDAV stands for “Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning” (RFC 2518). It is a protocol built on top of HTTP, allowing users to collaboratively edit and manage files on remote web servers.

nd can be used to retrieve, submit, remove, and lock individual files, as well as retrieving information about them. It also supports proxying, as well as the authentication methods ‘Basic’ and now ‘Digest’ for protecting against unsolicited access.

It is smaller than the alternative tool Cadaver. However, nd has neither an interactive mode, nor has it support for SSL or TLS encrypted transmissions, but it is well suited for use in scripts.

nd is dependent on libxml2 and libmhash2.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install nd

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install nd.

sudo apt -y install nd

sudo aptitude install nd
