Consider a set up like below : S1 W1 S2 S1 and S2 are two normal servers, while W1 is a webserver with the DAV inculcated. If I want to get a file F1 from W1(at directory D1 say) to S1(at directory D2) I can say : COPY /~D1/F1 HTTP/1.1 Host: www.W1.com Destination: http://www.S1/D2/F1 W1 would then transfer the file from W1 ro S1. What should happen if I want to stream the file from S2 to S1 via W1 ? Would the following transaction be performed by W1 ? COPY /~D1/F1 HTTP/1.1 Host: www.S2.com Destination: http://www.S1/D2/F1 If no, then what should be transaction to be sent across to W1? If yes, then : Would W1 create a file and retain a copy for itself while transferring it to S1 ? Any sort of clarification would be most welcome. Thanks, Sathya
