Hi,

the current ant tasks don't allow to connect to an https webdav url.
When I use a dav task and specify the url property as starting with "https://...";
ant complains about an 'invalid uri'.
If I modify the uri to start with http:// the server would send a redirect to
https and the ant task bails out with this error message:

10.08.2004 21:10:13 org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodBase processRedirect
Response
INFO: Redirect requested but followRedirects is disabled

--

It would also be nice if client cert authentification was supported.

Last but not least, I'd like to say that I dislike the fact that every ant task
comes with connection properties like url, username, password.
This way, ant has to reconnnect and reauthenticate with the server for each
operation. Therefore I'd like to propose to have one Ant task wich constitutes a
 webdav session and that all the other ant tasks can reference this
authentication context.

Maybe like this:

<dav:authContext name="session1" url="..." username="..." password="..." />
<dav:get context="session1">
    ....
</dav:get>


Thanks
