Basic WebDAV Configuration

DAVLockDB /usr/local/apache/var/DAVLock <Location /> Dav On </Location>

Configuring DAV is very simple. All you need to do is include DAV on inside the location or directory container you want to make accessible through DAV. The example shows how to DAV-enable your entire website. DAV has its own locking mechanism, and does not rely on the functionality of the underlying file system. You can specify the location of the DAV lock file with the DAVLockDB directive.

There are, however, a few more aspects of DAV configuration that need to be addressed in a production DAV environment: security and interoperability with buggy third-party clients. These are explained in the following sections.
