I've rented some space at livedrive.com which I wanted to use as an
online backup. Livedrive offers access via webdav and (s)ftp. When I
mount the webdav share (using davfs2 or gvfs) and start rsyncing files
this always fails with error 5 (input/output error) or error 2 (no such
file). Same problem when mounting via sftp (sshfs/gvfs) but transfer is
even slower then.
Originally I wanted to use encfs to encrypt the files but didn't even
start testing it as the "normal" rsync fails.
As I'm not sure wether the problem is the webdav-mount or the remote
host it would be great to know if someone has similar problems with
webdav-mounts or if somebody has a solution to this problem.

There are a lot of webdav services that won't work with davfs2 as davfs
chunks the authentication bit and a lot of the davfs systems don't
deal with that well.  OwnCloud (granted, a Windows app) doesn't like
it.
