okay- today i got a webdav server running on my home powermac

it works well so far as i'm trying to create a dumb easy way for me and my roomate to share files while outta the house with our ibooks

now what i wanna do is trick Panther into thinking that my server is a .mac server so i can see my server in the finder as an idisk and easily sync with the server

is there any possible way to do this
maybe some .plist file to edit?

thanks

Well, its not exactly trivial.. but read this little article. Not sure if it will work any more, but it used to (I had a linux box working with this a while back)

Is webdav open source or not?

Yeah, WebDAV is a feature of Apache, which is open source.
