Access control for a WebDAV collection is specified using native ACL files. Every WebDAV method requires a particular access right to a WebDAV-enabled resource. For example, if a WebDAV-enabled file is to be shared by concurrent users, in order to lock or unlock the resource for concurrency control, a write permission to the resource is required.
The following table below summarizes the rights required for WebDAV methods.
