Make built-in DAV client work with HTTPS
Authored by: bostonmacosx on Mar 11, '04 01:29:42PM

Speculation:
Wouldn't it be nice to recompile the finder and davfs with SSL support. EVERYTHING seems to have SSL support except for the finder in OS X.
I would put money on that this is just a switch which apple has left unchecked to increase the performance of the finder.

In addition there are problems with many other third party WebDAV solutions such as sharemation because instead of using the WEBDav trash apple wants all trashed items in the local .trash file which causes issues.

Authentication cookies for webdav would be nice also.

WHEW.

i agree completly. the finder NEEDS read/write ftp, sftp, and http/https webdav support. the fact that it doesn't do all this is stupid since they have the code to make it possible.
