9 Nautilus is Gnome's default file explorer and it has in-built WebDAV support. The following steps were tested on a Fedora 7 system running Nautilus 2.18.1:
10
11 * Open up Nautilus (by opening the current user's home folder) and select **File -> Connect To Server**:

13
14 * On the next window, enter your WebDAV connection details as demonstrated and click **Connect**:

17 * As a result of the above step, a link will be placed on your desktop. Double click on this link to open it:

20 * The next window will ask you for your authentication details for the XWiki server. Fill them in and click **Connect**:

23 * That's all! Wait patiently until Nautilus opens your XWiki WebDAV share:
