Step 2: Create data folder

$ mkdir /var/www/webXX/web/webdav
$ chown webXX_trident:webXX /var/www/webXX/web/webdav
$ chmod o+w /var/www/webXX/web/webdav

Step 3: Create lock folder

$ mkdir /var/www/webXX/DAVlocks
$ chown www-data:www-data /var/www/webXX/DAVlocks
$ chmod o+w /var/www/webXX/DAVlocks

Step 4: Download and install

$ apt-get install libapache-mod-dav
$ a2enmod dav
$ a2enmod dav_fs

Step 5: Create user

$ htpasswd -c /var/www/webXX/.DAVlogin username

Step 6: Add Apache Directives to ISPConfig site

Use the web interface and browse to Sites.

DavLockDB /var/www/webXX/DAVlocks/DAVlocks
Alias /webdav /var/www/webXX/web/webdav
<Location /webdav/>
