  IIS 6 webfarm - how to use Webdav? Reply Contact I want to have a site on my webfarm that allows users to upload and download documents specfic to them. I thought this could eb achieved through WebDAV but now I'm not sure - how does webdav work with NLB?  Am I better using a simple file share at the backend instead as a virtual directory, and if so, how do i get the NLB farm to authenticate each user against the file server?  Finally, if I'm using a single website with a single virtual directory, how do I stop users from seeing the existence of folders that are not theirs?  It's early days on this so I welcome any better ways to acheive this (but must be IIS 6 based at the front end) When in doubt - Google!
