+ <subsection name="Introduction">
+
+ <p>Microsoft operating systems have two WebDAV clients. One is used with
+ port 80, the other is used for all other ports. The implementation used
with
+ port 80 does not adhere to the WebDAV specification and fails when trying
to
+ communicate with the Tomcat WebDAV Servlet. This valve provides a fix for
+ this by forcing the use of the WebDAV implementation that works, even when
+ connecting via port 80.</p>
+
+ <p>This Valve may be used at the <code>Engine</code>, <code>Host</code> or
+ <code>Context</code> level as required. Normally, this Valve would be used
+ at the <code>Context</code> level.</p>
