Hi everybody,
I have a question regarding the functionality of Jackrabbit WebDAV server.

We have run a standard server and uploaded some files in it. When we upload
a new file with the same name we need to check if the file on the server is
up to date and shouldn't be replaced. The initial idea was to use ETags but
we found it's weak and is not suitable for the application. So now the idea
is to check the checksum (hash) of the incoming and existing files. As
files can be pretty big and downloading everytime can be a time-consuming
operation, it's better to have an option to easily obtain checksum for
already uploaded files.

So my question: are there any options to get a checksum for files uploaded
to the server? Maybe there are some other options or features that will
help in such file handling?

Thanks in advance for your reply!
Regards
Andrey
