Hello,

  deathening silence here, are my mails actually sent or is it simply
  the case that I didn't see the obvious and you are not answering me?

Hmmm... more tactful ways to word a 'ping, please respond' plea.

 i configured a vhost to allow webdav to authenticated users, now when
 people connect using either winxp or win2k they get a folder structure
 like:

 folder
 -folder
 --folder

 that wouldn't be that much of a problem if it would only display like
 that but i had reports that when people copy the top level folder
 windows also copies all subdirectories (including contents) resulting
 in ... minor troubles.

And why wouldn't it?  That's a client issue, not an issue with the server.
If the minor troubles are more trouble than they are worth, it's probably
worth your minor investment of time to refactor the directories they have
access too, so there aren't so many nested directories.

Not a server bug, it's user 'error' - Windows Explorer always assumes that
drag n' drop (copy) of a directory implies the entire tree.
