Description Victor Toso 2016-02-19 14:53:09 UTC
Share folders exists for quite sometime but it isn't widely used. Several fixes are landing for Spice's webdav daemon in windows and I would consider a good moment to include it in spice-guest-tools

Maybe we should change this to RFE and include spice-webdavd logic as a new daemon in agent?

I think webdavd could really use agent messages to be aware when user is connected/disconnected.

If there is any benefit.

Why wouldn't spice-webdavd be able to know just like the agent when user is connected/disconnected? (based on virtio channel events)

1-) I don't think anyone would be using spice-webdavd without having the spice-vdagent.

2-) Spice-vdagent package is already on live images. We could have spice-webdav by just increasing the requirement to have phodav

3-) We will get that on spice-guest-tools for free as well, kinda.

Well, I bet it can but we already have spice-vdagentd to read and parse the messages. I think it makes sense to port this there. Agree?
