<p>This module provides class 1 and class 2 <a href="http://www.webdav.org">WebDAV</a> ('Web-based Distributed
Authoring and Versioning') functionality for Apache. This
extension to the HTTP protocol allows creating, moving,
copying, and deleting resources and collections on a remote web
server.</p>
<p>To enable mod_dav, add the following to a container in your
<code>httpd.conf</code> file:</p>
<blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>Dav On</code></td></tr></table></blockquote>
<p>Also, specify a valid filename for the DAV lock database by
adding the following to the global section in your
<code>httpd.conf</code> file:</p>
<blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>DavLockDB /tmp/DavLock
<em>(Any web-server writable filename, without an
extension)</em>
</code></td></tr></table></blockquote>
<h2>Directives</h2><ul><li><a href="#dav">Dav</a></li><li><a href="#davdepthinfinity">DavDepthInfinity</a></li><li><a href="#davlockdb">DavLockDB</a></li><li><a href="#davmintimeout">DavMinTimeout</a></li></ul><hr/><h2><a name="Dav">Dav</a> <a name="dav">Directive</a></h2><table bgcolor="#cccccc" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1"><tr><td><table bgcolor="#ffffff"><tr><td><strong>Description: </strong></td><td>Enable WebDAV HTTP methods</td></tr><tr><td><a class="help" href="directive-dict.html#Syntax">Syntax:</a></td><td>Dav on|off</td></tr><tr><td><a class="help" href="directive-dict.html#Default">Default:</a></td><td><code>Dav off</code></td></tr><tr><td><a class="help" href="directive-dict.html#Context">Context:</a></td><td>directory</td></tr><tr><td><a class="help" href="directive-dict.html#Status">Status:</a></td><td>Extension</td></tr><tr><td><a class="help" href="directive-dict.html#Module">Module:</a></td><td>mod_dav</td></tr></table></td></tr></table>
<p>Use the <code class="directive">Dav</code> directive to enable the
WebDAV HTTP methods for the given container. You may wish to add a
<a class="directive" href="core.html#limit"><code class="directive"><Limit></code></a> clause
inside the <a class="directive" href="core.html#location"><code class="directive"><location></code></a> directive to limit access to
DAV-enabled locations.</p>
<blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><p align="center"><strong>Example</strong></p><code>

<p>Use the <code class="directive">DavDepthInfinity</code> directive to
allow the processing of PROPFIND requests containing the header
'Depth: Infinity'. Because this type of request could constitute a
denial-of-service attack, by default it is not allowed.</p>
<hr/><h2><a name="DavLockDB">DavLockDB</a> <a name="davlockdb">Directive</a></h2><table bgcolor="#cccccc" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1"><tr><td><table bgcolor="#ffffff"><tr><td><strong>Description: </strong></td><td>Location of the DAV lock database</td></tr><tr><td><a class="help" href="directive-dict.html#Syntax">Syntax:</a></td><td>DavLockDB <em>file-path</em></td></tr><tr><td><a class="help" href="directive-dict.html#Context">Context:</a></td><td>server config, virtual host</td></tr><tr><td><a class="help" href="directive-dict.html#Status">Status:</a></td><td>Extension</td></tr><tr><td><a class="help" href="directive-dict.html#Module">Module:</a></td><td>mod_dav</td></tr></table></td></tr></table>
<p>Use the <code class="directive">DavLockDB</code> directive to specify
the full path to the lock database, excluding an extension. The
default (file system) implementation of mod_dav uses a SDBM
database to track user locks. The utility
<code>modules/dav/util/lockview</code> can be used from the server
to display all locks in a lock database.</p>

DavLockDB /tmp/DavLock
</code></td></tr></table></blockquote>

<p>When a client requests a DAV resource lock, it can also
specify a time when the lock will be automatically removed by
the server. This value is only a request, and the server can
ignore it or inform the client of an arbitrary value.</p>
<p>Use the <code class="directive">DavMinTimeout</code> directive to specify, in
seconds, the minimum lock timeout to return to a client.
Microsoft Web Folders defaults to a timeout of 120 seconds; the
<code class="directive">DavMinTimeout</code> can override this to a higher value
(like 600 seconds) to reduce the chance of the client losing
the lock due to network latency.</p>

<Location /MSWord><br/>
DavMinTimeout 600<br/>
