Read the Wikipedia article!

Usage

The WebDAV username and password can be found in ISoft's customer case.

See Internal:Setting up a Webdav Directory for the server-side configuration.

Troubleshooting

If you can't copy files into the directory (especially if you receive "permission denied" errors), check on the server to see that the directory permissions and configured correctly. See Internal:Setting up a Webdav Directory#Troubleshooting for more details.
