WebDAV with Windows Explorer
I still have another sysadmin post for today… 
I wanted to note the following somewhere:
WebDAV rocks! But, if you want to do it with some windows client and the windows explorer – Microsoft claims that the explorer is able to speak WebDAV – you should add the following lines to your Apache Config:
BrowserMatch "Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider" redirect-carefully
BrowserMatch "MS FrontPage" redirect-carefully
BrowserMatch "^WebDrive" redirect-carefully
BrowserMatch "^WebDAVFS/1.[0123]" redirect-carefully
BrowserMatch "^gnome-vfs" redirect-carefully
BrowserMatch "^XML Spy" redirect-carefully
BrowserMatch "^Dreamweaver-WebDAV-SCM1" redirect-carefully

And another tip: Sometimes it really makes a difference for the explorer when you add the port to your URL: Instead of calling http://[hostname]/[folder]/ try http://[hostname]:[port]/[folder]/. Especially when the explorer repeatingly prompts for a login, you should try that.
Trackback(s)
A trackback is a kind of a source link. If i was finding an interesting entry in another blog, that i am commenting in my own blog, i am linking to the original message via the trackback. Has someone commented one of my entries in his/her weblog, you can find this link here under trackbacks, too. More informations about trackback are in the Wikipedia for example.
