no one answered me so i'm answering myself....
php.ini has a directive called allow_webdav_methods that is by default off.
changing this directive do not work on php 4.3.2 as written at
http://il.php.net/ini.core (didn't really understood what they ment
there by "This directive does not exist as of PHP 4.3.2"... (new feature
/ old feature / bug??)
so I also updated to php4.4.0 using cheetahweb rpms from
http://mirror.cheetaweb.com/redhat/3ES/i386/RPMS.cheeta/
Happy New Year (The Jewish new year starts next week..)

I've a simple php script (see below) that write to a file the
"REQUEST METHOD" that was used while calling this script.
means that when I use a browser to access this script, it write to the
file "GET".
The problem starts while I try for example to send an OPTIONS request
to this script (using a simple perl script that I wrote and is attached)
while trying on RH based linuxes the request get to the apache logs
but not to the php script (means my script do not write anything to
its file
but while trying on Debian based linuxes - the script *do* get all
requests...
I tried to compare the apache conf files and php.ini files w/o success...
any idea how to set php (or apache) to pass these requests to my
script ??
tnx,

the scripts:
req.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use HTTP::Headers;
use LWP::UserAgent;
my $request = new HTTP::Request(
'OPTIONS'=>"http://cc.jct.ac.il/method/"; );
my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
my $response = $ua->request($request) || return "ERROR\t$!";
print $response->server;

method.php
<?php
$filename = '/var/www/html/method/method.log';
$somecontent = $_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"]."\n";
// Let's make sure the file exists and is writable first.
#if (is_writable($filename)) {
// In our example we're opening $filename in append mode.
// The file pointer is at the bottom of the file hence
// that's where $somecontent will go when we fwrite() it.
if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
exit;
}
// Write $somecontent to our opened file.
if (fwrite($handle, $somecontent) === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
exit;
}
echo "Success, wrote ($somecontent) to file ($filename)";
fclose($handle);
