[Cialug] WebDAV?

[Daniel A. Ramaley]

I just tested with dolphin. It was quite easy to connect to the share. 
And it didn't take over my desktop like nautilus did, which is 
definitely good. So far though i think cadaver or one of the FUSE 
modules might be better for my usage as i tend to be more command-line 
oriented. I'll have to do some testing. Thanks for the suggestions! I'm 
at least getting a better idea of how i expect a program to behave.
