DAV(4) DAV(4)
NAME
dav - web dav file server
SYNOPSIS
o/dav [ -dr ] [ -a addr ]
DESCRIPTION
Dav is a WebDAV file server that exports an Inferno name
space through the WebDAV protocol, as described in RFCs 2518
and 2616.
Its primary usage is to let the host operating system (for
systems other than Plan 9) use the name space of the
Inferno.
By default, it spawns a backgroup process that listens for
clients at port 9999 on the loopback network interface.
Option -a may be used to make it listen at addr instead.
Flag -r makes the server read-only, for safety.
Flag -d activates debug diagnostics. Repeating the flag one
or more increases the verbosity.

BUGS
The program is new and has been tested only with MacOS X
Leopard. ACL processing is incomplete at most. Use with
caution. Also, there should be a way to export only part of
a namespace. A bug in bufio(2) requires using the fixed
version found at lsub for this module.
