Re: xDAV and shared namespaces

Ken,

Thanks a lot! After creating the shared folder under the root hierarchy 
(with imtest -a admin and the command you provided), setting the 
corresponding ACLs for the users that have to have access to the folder 
(with cyradm sam) and creating a new connection in each WebDAV client 
for https://domain.com/dav/drive/shared/, everything worked fine!

I'll try to test the same with CalDAV / CardDAV and report it here.

Regards,
Anatoli

Definitely do this as an admin (e.g. 'cyrus') that DOES NOT have their 
own user hierarchy.

Its been so long since I wrote and played with the WebDAV module that I 
forgot how it works.  Try:

x CREATE #drive/shared (TYPE COLLECTION)

Use whatever you have set for the davdriveprefix option and the proper 
hierarchy ('.' if you have disabled unixhierarchysep)
