Make built-in DAV client work with HTTPS
An easier way would be to just use ssh and do ssh tunnels. ssh is installed by default on all OS X clients 10.2+ via terminal and most machines should support sshd (except Windows).

SSH tunnels certainly work. Just make sure that you're not forward a local port to the https (443) port on the webdav server - you don't need to talk https because you're already tunneling over a secured connection.
the command would be something like this: ssh -L 8080:localhost:80 remote.server.name
Then just connect to http://localhost:8080/whateverdirectory/ and your webdav connection will be tunneled over the ssh connection you just established. Once this is working, you can set up auto-login with authorized keys and then create a shell script containing the ssh command from above. If you want to get really fancy, you could have that script launch at startup/login, and if you're using a laptop, use one of the network (re)connection utilities to restart the script if/when your network connection is interrupted.

the downside to ssh tunnels is you have to have ssh running on the server side. Not everyone has control over the server to be able to ensure that.

You'd need accounts on the server for that to work. |
