Maybe it's just the contents of my Plone site that can't be seen, but 
if I use Windows (webfolders) to map to the ordinary web port on my 
server it connects okay, but I can see absolutely nothing in there.  I 
can only see contents when I use the dav-source port.

Since DAV is merely an extension of HTTP really how could you switch it 
off without affecting the HTTP traffic?

Long time since I tinkered with Mod_DAV and Apache - but I seem to 
recall you have to have an access rule for each directory you want to 
serve via DAV.
