NAME
       Net::DAV::Server - Provide a DAV Server

SYNOPSIS
         my $filesys = Filesys::Virtual::Plain->new({root_path => $cwd});
         my $webdav = Net::DAV::Server->new();
         $webdav->filesys($filesys);

         my $d = HTTP::Daemon->new(
           LocalAddr => 'localhost',
           LocalPort => 4242,
           ReuseAddr => 1) || die;
         print "Please contact me at: ", $d->url, "\n";
         while (my $c = $d->accept) {
           while (my $request = $c->get_request) {
             my $response = $webdav->run($request);
             $c->send_response ($response);
           }
           $c->close;
           undef($c);
         }

DESCRIPTION
       This module provides a WebDAV server. WebDAV stands for "Web-based Distributed Authoring
       and Versioning". It is a set of extensions to the HTTP protocol which allows users to col-
       laboratively edit and manage files on remote web servers.

       Net::DAV::Server provides a WebDAV server and exports a filesystem for you using the
       Filesys::Virtual suite of modules. If you simply want to export a local filesystem, use
       Filesys::Virtual::Plain as above.

       This module doesn't currently provide a full WebDAV implementation. However, I am working
       through the WebDAV server protocol compliance test suite (litmus, see http://www.web-
       dav.org/neon/litmus/) and will provide more compliance in future. The important thing is
       that it supports cadaver and the Mac OS X Finder as clients.
