I don?t know of an Apache/WebDAV solution off the top of my head for your requirement, but it is probably easiest to address this from the filesystem: change the permissions on the directory to be read only.

Subject:
Limiting COPY method for WebDAV to one direction
I am running WebDAV on my Apache 2.0.51 server on Fedora Core 2.
I would like to allow users to copy files _from_ a certain directory,
but not _into_ it. However, if I allow the COPY method (via a the
LimitExcept tag) then I am allowing copy _from_ and copy _to_. There doesn't
seem to be able to any means to control the direction of the copy
method.
Is there are way to
configure this? It seems like a fairly basic
requirement: a read-only WebDAV folder which allows users to copy files into
their personal directories, with a direct HTTP COPY call.
