How to allow writing to files via Apache and WebDAV

So it seems that I can allow access to specific files using the below

<Files .htaccess> order allow,deny deny from all</Files>

I forgot that .htaccess files are blocked over HTTP by default.

EDIT:

The final working setup, to make all files writeable in the webdav environment, with Digest secure authentication is:

<VirtualHost *:80>        ServerAdmin xxx        ServerName www.domain.name        DocumentRoot xxx        <Directory xxx>                Options Indexes MultiViews                AllowOverride None                Order allow,deny                allow from all        </Directory>        <FilesMatch "\.(htaccess|php)$">        Order allow,deny        allow from all        ForceType text/plain    </FilesMatch>        <Location />                DAV On                AuthType Digest                AuthName "Webdav Access"        AuthDigestDomain / http://www.domain.name/        AuthDigestProvider file                AuthUserFile /data/www/digest.users                Require valid-user        php_value engine off        </Location></VirtualHost>

I hope this helps someone else. It took days to find all this info out on the web.

Also check the permissions of /data/www/ itself. It should be writable for the apache user.
