WebDAV on MacOS 10.5
Just a quick note on some problems I had with WebDAV on MacOS 10.5
When using the "Connect To Server" function of the Finder, certain WebDAV connections will put 0kb files to the server when attempting to upload by dragging files onto the connection window.
This is apparently a problem with Transfer-Encoding settings, but a nice workaround is just to mount the drive, and copy files via Terminal (ie: cp filename /Volumes/home).
That said, I'm a huge fan of Transmit ($) and Cyberduck (0) which support much better WebDAV integration.
What sort of server are you using? Both Tiger and Leopard WebDAV works quite well with Xythos WFS (I believe it runs on Solaris here). Drag-and-drop works great.

It looks like its an explicit Finder issue (not Mac OS X).
