Thanks for the responses. Does anyone have a good web link on how to install/configure/use WebDAV?

    Hi Brendan,

    You could have a look at...

    gFTP

  Please note that while FTP is old and stable as heck, it has some fascinating proxy problems and security problems. For most non-anonymous uses these days, WebDAV over SSL is superior: it's a single port, more secure,. supports chroot and basic Apache security models, and operates fine with numerous command-line and graphical tools (including lftp and I believe Konqueror), and is built into Windows as well.
