   To the OP, I can't stress how IMPORTANT that sentence is above, as not   
   knowing that sentence cost me probably days (elapsed time) in getting the   
   solution to work because you're at the mercy of file specifications and how   
   they may differ between Android and Windows when you mount your sd card.   
      
   It's actually surprisingly shocking that not only is "DavWWWRoot"   
   universally used by all WebDav servers (AFAIK), but NONE of them seem to   
   tell you that. WTF?   
      
   I don't get it - but it cost me a lot of time NOT knowing that keyword.   
      
   It shows up nowhere in the settings. Nowhere in the help. Nowhere.   
   You are supposed to magically know it.   
      
   Now you know this is the *simplest* connection you can perform:   
    net use E: \\192.168.0.2@8080\DavWWWRoot   
      
   But there's a lot more you can do once you get that simple setup going.   
   net use /?   
   The syntax of this command is:   
      
   NET USE   
   [devicename | *] [\\computername\sharename[\volume] [password | *]]   
           [/USER:[domainname\]username]   
           [/USER:[dotted domain name\]username]   
           [/USER:[username@dotted domain name]   
           [/SMARTCARD]   
           [/SAVECRED]   
           [/REQUIREINTEGRITY]   
           [/REQUIREPRIVACY]   
           [/WRITETHROUGH]   
           [[/DELETE] | [/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}]]   
      
   NET USE {devicename | *} [password | *] /HOME   
      
   NET USE [/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}]
