ezRemote Client is an application that allows you to connect the PS4 to remote FTP, SMB and WebDAV servers to transfer files. The interface is inspired by Filezilla client which provides a commander like GUI.

Usage

To distinguish between FTP, SMB or WebDAV, the URL mush be prefix with ftp://, smb://, http:// and https://

The url format for FTP is

ftp://hostname[:port]

  - hostname can be the textual hostname or an IP address
  - port is optional and defaults to 21 if not provided

The url format for SMB is

smb://hostname[:port]/sharename

  - hostname can be the textual hostname or an IP address
  - port is optional and defaults to 445 if not provided

The url format for WebDAV is

http://hostname[:port]/url_path
https://hostname[:port]/url_path

  - hostname can be the textual hostname or an IP address
  - port is optional and defaults to 80(http) and 443(https) if not provided

Tested with following WebDAV server:

(Recommeded) Dufs - For hosting your own WebDAV server. (Recommended since this allow anonymous access which is required for Remote Package Install)
SFTPgo - For local hosted WebDAV server. Can also be used as a webdav frontend for Cloud Storage like AWS S3, Azure Blob or Google Storage.
box.com (Note: delete folder does not work. This is an issue with box.com and not the app)
mega.nz (via the megacmd tool)
4shared.com
drivehq.com

Remote Package Installer Feature

Remote Package Installation only works if the WebDAV server allow anonymous access. It's a limitation of the PS4 Installer not able to access protected links.

Features

Transfer files back and forth between PS4 and FTP/SMB/WebDAV server
Install packages from connected WebDAV server
Install packages from PS4 local drive
Install package from Direct Links. Direct links are links that can be reached without being redirected to a webpage where it requires capthas or timers. Example of direct links are github release artifacts. Google shared links is the only exception since I could indirectly parse the webpage to obtain the direct links.
Extract/Create Zip files

Installation

Copy the ezremote_client.pkg in to a FAT32 format usb drive then install from package installer
