bruni@PROX15:~$ mount /home/bruni/Documents/Data_Buero/Egroupware/wd_files
/sbin/mount.davfs: user bruni must be member of group davfs2
bruni@PROX15:~$ groups bruni
bruni : bruni dialout cdrom floppy sudo audio video plugdev users input lpadmin davfs2
bruni@PROX15:~$

Could somebody enlighten me with regard to the error message user bruni must be member of group davfs2? As I understand it, bruni already is a member of davfs2.

Did you only recently add the user to the group? the change doesn't take effect until the next login session – steeldriver Mar 26 '20 at 12:46

have you tried closing, opening terminal or even reboot? – Gryu Mar 26 '20 at 12:51
