Mount WebDAV as storage?

[finlaydag33k]

Hii there,

I have been using FreeNAS for a long time right now, and recently, I managed to get a 1TB cloud storage. (that is about 4x the storage in my NAS, I know, 250GB isn't a lot, but I can't afford bigger disk at the moment)
The only problem is that this storage is only available trough either a client or WebDAV.
As the client is not available for FreeNAS, I have to use WebDAV.

now how do I mount the WebDAV as storage?
The data that I will put on it is not exactly important to me (mainly just Anime and Movies) but right now, I have about 120GB of Anime and movies, and yea, as you can see, thats about 50% of my total drive capacity :D
Why not just delete the anime you say? well because it would mean that I won't be able to access it from my PlexMediaServer.

Can try looking here, but I don't use WebDAV so YMMV:

@Mirfster thanks for your reply, unfortunately, that page only shows how to make a WebDAV share, but not mount an external WebDAV share to the NAS itself.
To add some more clarification:
I want this (if the flowline makes any sense)
Cloud-storage --- WebDAV ---> NAS -- NFS/CIFS/AFS --> Other stuff like Plex and my Windows PC

Hmm, perhaps look at using a plug-in or a jail? Sorry, I don't use these so I am not much help. :)

Lets tag @Joshua Parker Ruehlig he is the plug-in guru. ;)

I don't think a jail will help as a jail acts more like a VM as far as I know... (but I might be completely wrong there?)

update: I think I should be able to edit the fstab file to mount the webDAV... problem is: I don't know how...

Can this be done? I have 1TB external storage that I would like to mount in FreeNAS.
It supports webdav but no ssh: https://www.transip.nl/stack/

I use stack as well :)
But I still didn't find anything on how to do it :\

I found a page on using duplicity in a jail to do a RSYNC, https://www.transip.nl/forum/post/prm/4338

Maybe that helps?
