WebDAV Setup

Here is a reference-setup, for DAV-enabling a server. This was all placed in the file /etc/apache2/modules.d/45_mod_dav.conf.

<IfDefine DAV>

# Use only one of the following possible sections.

#        Explicitly list the permitted users, ~after~ authentication has succeeded.
#        Effectively a 2nd gate, at the authourization phase.
#         require ldap-user gordonp

#        There will be times when it's sufficient for an authenticated-user to be
#        authourized and granted access; it they're good in LDAP, they're OK by me.
