Re: WebDAV on Symantec 5400

[Aaron Bedra <abedra () westervillelibrary org>]

Scott,

This is really not too bad to do.  Just keep in mind if you are on 2.x be
sure to patch to -current because there was a 2.x update that broke the
SGS's ability to properly handle SVN data.  The nice part is that it is as
easy as turning on webdav.
