The WebDAV redirector built into Windows uses a different codebase from
the one built into Internet Explorer. It also doesn't match the WebDAV
spec in a number of unpleasant ways. I assume the httpd developers
(assuming this is what you mean by "Apache web server") have managed to
find a workaround which is not in Tomcat's WebDAV servlet.
Have you looked at Jakarta Slide? It contains a more complete WebDAV
implementation than Tomcat's own servlet, and may get round the problem.
It also includes pluggable storage modules; you may find that much of
your distributed file system work has been done for you.
