I'm trying to connect to a secure WebDAV server but I keep getting the error "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply"

DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a
reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a
reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply
timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

How can I check the security policy or furthur diagnose the problem? I am connected through windows machines.

Make sure the URI you connect to is like this:

For SSL (https):

davs://[username@]servername.tld/folder

If not encrypted (http):

dav://[username@]servername.tld/folder

AFAIK, most webdav servers can only access known folders, they don't support browsing from the root up. Also, the webdav user may be a different one than your current user.

If you don't mind having some xfce dependencies on board, the gigolo package will give you a bookmark editor for such links.
