mod_dav provides class 1 and class 2 WebDAV (‘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.
Since DAV access methods allow remote clients to manipulate files on the server, you must take particular care to assure that your server is secure before enabling mod_dav.
This is free and open source software.
