What I don't like about webdav is that you can basically only access it
through apache. 

Samba is a daemon that is designed to run as root and support multiple
users. Apache is designed to run with minimal priviliges, and therefor
any system-level user management can not be used: you cannot control
permissions using chmod, chown and the rest.

As a result, people have re-implemented that stuff all over again in the
application level. And it doesn't really work as well. You can olny
access it through apache. No way to access the webdav files directly.

In that sense, FTP would be better.

A different approach is to create a simple VPN between the two. openvpn
is an example of such VPN. It seems to handle reconnections rather
gracefully.
