/etc/fstab is used by mount to describe devices it will try to mount. The manpage for mount will give you much more helpful information about what filesystems are currently supported, but it basically boils down to the kernel and mount itself needing support for a particular filesystem before mount will work for you. With that in mind, a few more minutes googling turned up davfs2 ( http://dav.sourceforge.net/ ), which looks like it should do what you want, but I haven't actually tried it at all.
