I tried the magnolia webdav module yesterday. Both read and write
access worked fine for me, and I could share files between my Linux
and MacOS clients. I don't use Windows so I don't know the status
there.

So it works as a remote file system, but interoperability with
Magnolia itself suffers due to differences in interpreting nodes.

Here is what I did to try the webdav module under GlassFish:

1. Check out the source code from svn and compile it.

2. Copy the jar file to WEB-INF/lib in the deployed Magnolia.

3. Copy these files from the Jackrabbit distribution:
   jackrabbit-webdav-1.5.2.jar
   jackrabbit-jcr-server-1.5.2.jar

4. Copy src/main/resources/mgnl-files/WEB-INF/webdav-config.xml
   to WEB-INF.

5. Restart.

6. Mount e.g. http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.webdav/dms/
