I've been trying to get webdav to work with apache for a little while now and I must be missing something. Currently I just have the directives like this

<Location /var/www/html/dav/>
       DAV on
</Location>

I just want to verify that webdav actually works. When trying to map the location with Windows XP it asks for a username/password which I don't understand why it should? I also tried a program called "Webdrive" and it was unable to connect and gave this error when authenticating as an anonymous user:

"Unable to connect to server, error information below

Error: HTTP Error response received from server, erorr=405 (4516)
Operation: Connecting to server
Server Response: 405 Method Not Allowed"

I tried the litmus test on the centos machine and got this:

"[EMAIL PROTECTED] james]# /usr/local/bin/litmus http://192.168.1.8/dav/
-> running `basic':
0. init.................. pass
1. begin................. FAIL (Could not create new collection `/dav/litmus/' for tests: 405 Method Not Allowed
Server must allow `MKCOL /dav/litmus/' for tests to proceed)
<- summary for `basic': of 2 tests run: 1 passed, 1 failed. 50.0%
See debug.log for network/debug traces."

The directory permissions look fine...owned by apache:apache and 775

Before this I was using a .htpasswd file and had authentication on in the apache directives but the usernames and passwords I added to the file would not work. It had the exact same problem I have now. I'm sure it's something simple and I'm an idiot -- I just can't figure it out =o(
