 +**Notes**:
 +  * In the ''sudo mount'' command shown above, the RDMS WebDAV was mounted with the permissions of the default user with a user and group id (uid/gid) of 1000. Assigning this incorrectly can cause issues if you want to read and especially write data to the mounted RDMS folder. If you are unsure about your current users uid/gid, you can run ''id <your_linux_username>'' to retrieve this info.
 +  *  The email address of the RDMS account you want to use for mounting can be also already specified during command execution by additionally giving the '' -o username=<emailaddress>'' command. If you do so, do not forget to substitute the email placeholder with your correct RDMS account. 
 +  * The command as shown above will mount the RDMS WebDAV root folder which contains different RDMS folders like your user's home folder, available [[rdms:solution:team|RDMS Team Drives]] and [[rdms:solution:projects|RDMS Projects]]. You can also specify a specific subfolder in the RDMS WebDAV root if you do not want to make all available via the mount point by changing the WebDAV address. For example adjusting to ''%%https://webdav.data.rug.nl%%/<Team_Name>'' will make the Team Drive ''<Team_Name>'' available while ''%%https://webdav.data.rug.nl%%/<emailadress>'' will mount the home folder of the user with the specified mail address.
