WebDAV
With WebDAV you can mount the Group-Office files as a network share on your desktop. First you must determine the baseURI.
Ideally your Apache webserver is configured with an alias
Alias /webdav /path/to/groupoffice/modules/dav/files.php
In this case your baseURI is:
https://your.url.to.groupoffice/webdav/
Otherwise the URL will not work on Windows and it's:
https://your.url.to.groupoffice/modules/dav/files.php/
The WebDAV feature is based on SabreDAV
Windows
Use the URL above and follow the instructions here:

Davfs2
Make sure "davfs2" is installed.
Create a mount point as root:
mkdir /media/groupoffice/
Add to /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf (See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/davfs2/+bug/459998):
ignore_home kernoops
Add your user to the davfs2 group in /etc/group. Find the line with davfs2 and append your user name like this:
davfs2:x:130:username
Add this line to /etc/fstab:
https://your.url.to.groupoffice/modules/dav/files.php/ /media/groupoffice davfs user,noauto,rw 0 0
Then, add the following line to /etc/davfs2/secrets:
https://your.url.to.groupoffice/modules/dav/files.php/ username mypassword
Now run:
chmod u+s /sbin/mount.davfs
Now you can mount the drive with the file manager or on the terminal as the normal user:
mount /media/groupoffice/
And you should be able to browse your Group-Office files.
