subersion? I lost you.

Subversion uses mod_dav too, so it's essentially equivalent to using
mod_dav_fs (except that it is much more powerful).

And the problem - basic authentication works, with digest I always
get internal error - but it could be still due to misconfiguration on
my side - I'll try more tomorrow.


The problem is then when using WebDAV from Windows XP over https or
http with authorization then for example double-clicking on picture
won't open preview - however I can copy file to local storage from web
dav and then it works. With http without password it works fine. The
only difference I see on Windows box is that with webdav over http without
password I see '\\server' in url, while when adding webdav resource
over https or http with password I don't get \\server but rather
http[s]://server and then functionality is limited.

The same is if I want to map webdav resource to disk drive letter -
works only with webda over http without password.

That's a well-known bug in WinXP.  Subversion has documented a workaround here:

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.webdav.clients.html#svn.webdav.clients.file-explorer-extensions.windows

There are some other subtler hacks that'll work around that, but the
trick there is the easiest and most reliable.  -- justin
