Ciao.
Stasera sono entrato in #linux-it e ho incontrato Marco d'Itri della ILS, gli
ho parlato del problema con il nostro sito e ce lo ha sistemato.
Inoltre ha attivato il supporto per il DAV che, da quanto ho letto, permette
di accedere al sito come se fosse in locale ed ha alcune facilitazioni per
poter sviluppare un sito in più persone (proprio quello che stavamo cercando).
Si può utilizzare il dav con i programmi cadaver e (x)sitecopy (disponibili
anche in deb), cadaver è disponibile anche per win, naturalmente bisogna
avere nomeutente/password per l'accesso al sito.

What, exactly, is WebDAV? It's a world of seamless teamwork. It's
cross-country (or pan-planet) collaboration with a click. It's a whole new
reason to love the Net. All contained in one potent little desktop icon.
WebDAV, or Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning, is the emerging
standard in web-based collaboration. Simply put, WebDAV allows web
development teams and other workgroups to use a remote web server as easily
as if it were a local file server. So you and your far-flung colleagues can
all swap knowledge, knock heads, distill ideas, craft assets, and usher
projects to completion as if you were sharing a single office network.
How does WebDAV work? Each of your colleagues - whether they're in Bangalore
or Bangor - mounts a WebDAV volume located on the shared web server to his or
her desktop. They can then access its files as they would any other networked
volume.
Using WebDAV, a team of web professionals can remotely develop, edit, and
manage a live or staged website. Indeed, any team can tackle any type of
collaborative project hosted on a remote server.
Technically, WebDAV is a set of extensions to the HTTP protocol. Several of
the most popular web authoring applications, including Adobe GoLive 5 and
Macromedia Dreamweaver 4, already support WebDAV. With Mac OS X, you can use
any software application with WebDAV to remotely edit and manage websites or
other files as Mac OS X supports WebDAV at the operating system level.
Like all good Net protocols, WebDAV is platform-neutral. As long as a web
server supports WebDAV, web professionals using Mac OS X can mount WebDAV
volumes to their desktops regardless of their web server's operating system.
Conversely, designers and developers using a wide variety of systems,
including UNIX, Windows, and Macintosh, can access WebDAV volumes on a web
server running Mac OS X Server.
WebDAV provides several key features that streamline collaboration and
workflow, including:
Locking: Locking protects web team members from overwriting each other's
changes. When two or more people are working on the same file, WebDAV ensures
that they compare or merge changes before writing to the file.
Properties: WebDAV properties make it easier to track and locate web
resources. You can store metadata about web resources such as document
titles, author names, publication dates, and other information. To locate web
resources more easily, you can conduct searches based on property values
using the DAV Searching and Locating protocol.
Remote file management: Once a WebDAV volume is mounted on your desktop, you
can access, edit, and manage any of the files that the volume contains.
Because the files are directly accessible, you also can use AppleScript to
develop routines that automate the web production workflow. Other file
transfer and access methods such as file transfer protocol (FTP) don't
provide this same level of file manipulation and control
