In SAS 9.1.x the WebDav technology SAS used was powered by an open source component called Xythos.
Xthyos provided the mechanism by which the SAS Web tools (WRS, Portal etc) could read and write to a database repository (Postgres, Oracle, Sql Server etc) to store the content (WRS (XML) reports).
In SAS 9.2 / 9.3, SAS re-engineered the entire platform to remove the Xythos component and deliver what is called the SAS Content Server.
If you look under the cover, you wil find that SAS have replaced Xythos with another open source component to provide the WebDav capability, this time Apache JackRabbit.
When you start up the Web server and checkout the logs and you wil see something along the lines of:
“2011-11-11 12:42:32,836[[STANDBY] ExecuteThread: ’2′ for queue: ‘weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)’] INFO org.apache.jackrabbit.webdav.simple.SimpleWebdavServlet – WWW-Authenticate header = ‘Basic realm=”Jackrabbit Webdav Server”
