Can't access symlinks within webdav folders [using apache 2.2.22] or map drive for explorer [windows]


So, it turns out:

<Location /webdav-public>

A location as above can be a symbolic link. However, symbolic links within the share location are not supported for whatever reason (at least for apache 2.2.22 in the debian stable repo). They do show when accessed by firefox or chrome for me, but not from a webdav client or while mapped in windows explorer (while on the home network, not tested elsewhere).

I had to rearrange my files to suit webdav, which sucks.
