This is a problem, either with the spec > text, or with the implementations. OK, tested with Apache/moddav (2.2.4), IIS (5), Xythos WFS and SAP KM, using Content-Range, Content-MD5, Content-Foobar. Only one of the servers (Xythos) rejects all requests it should. IIS and SAP KM reject PUT/Content-Range, but not others. Apache/moddav 2.2.4 accepts all of them and ignores them (opened issue: <https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42978>). Best regards, Julian
