Hi all.

I am sorry if I might sound like a complete fool; but I have been lately
investigating the basics of WebDAV; and wonder that if the following
use-case is feasible at all ::

"There are two users Bob and Alice. Each of Bob and Alice have setup a
WebDAV server on their local machines over SSL, and listen on port 443. In
a normal environment, Bob is able to access Alice's share by typing
"https://<Alice's IP Address>/webdav". Alice is able to the same.

Next, both Alice and Bob log onto a Jabber server set up by their common
friend Tom; and the only way they can communicate is via Jabber. They still
want to make their shares available to each other; and wish for the
simplest way to do it - via their browser. So, can Tom configure his Jabber
server in a manner, so as to allow Bob and Alice to access each other's
WebDAV shares' via their respective browsers?"


Looking forward to a reply.


Thanks and Regards,
Ajay
