Turns out, this wasn't working because I hadn't installed the CA certificate for the nextcloud instance. The browser let me access the cloud instance nevertheless, but with net use... $ net use https://cloud.somedomain/remote.php/dav/files/corinna \ /user:corinna somepassword System error 1244 has occurred. As soon as I installed the certificate it started working! $ net use https://cloud.somedomain/remote.php/dav/files/corinna \ /user:corinna somepassword The command completed successfully. And it started working in Cygwin with the patch removing the at-sign prior to calling GetAddrInfoW: $ ls -l // | grep cloud dr-xr-xr-x 1 corinna vinschen 0 Feb 21 21:41 cloud01.somedomain@ssl $ cd //cloud.somedomain@ssl/remote.php/dav/files/corinna $ ls | head -1 Backup Musik 'Reasons to use Nextcloud.pdf' > *PLEASE* push the patch to cut off the L'@' Now that it works for me and I could actually test it, done. This will be in test release 3.6.0-0.387.g8cebbb2b42bf. Thanks for the input in terms of Webdav.
