Description: ------------ If the WebDAV server sends a 401 Authorization required response to an OPTIONS request from MS MiniRedir (Microsoft-WebDAV-MiniRedir/5.1.2600), the client gives up and hands over the connection the other client in Win XP, (Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider Cache Manager). Using MiniRedir is usually preferred over the other client. An OPTIONS request doesn't reveal much information about the system, so I don't think it would be a big problem if OPTIONS request didn't ask for authorization. The behaviour can be changed achieved by changing the line if (!$this->_check_auth()) { in ServeRequest() to something like if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] != 'OPTIONS' && !$this->_check_auth()) {
