Hi,
At the moment XWiki cannot support Digest
Authentication and I'm not sure
whether LDAP authentication can be done for
WebDAV. I will look around a
bit
and get back to you on this.
Basic or Diggest authentication are authentication entry point (which
receive credentials), WebDav still have to use XWikiRightService to
validate the credentials (authentication back-end where LDAP
authenticator and others are).
Ok, I see.
In that case it should be possible to provide LDAP support without much
effort. I will have a look at how credential validation is currently done in
webdav module as make necessary changes.
Thanks.

Well authentication mechanism is generic for the whole XWiki platform.
If WebDAV support any authentication then it supports LDAP, i doubt an
authentication system has been coded specifically for WebDAV module.
It would be weird that WebDAV does not use it but i don't know WebDAV
module very well.
Thanks,
