Valve that attempts to force MS WebDAV clients connecting on port 80 to use a WebDAV client that actually works. Other workarounds that might help include:

Specifing the port, even if it is port 80, when trying to connect.
Canceling the first authentication dialog box and then trying to reconnect.

To use this valve add the following

<Valve
 className="org.apache.catalina.valves.WebdavFixValve" />

to your Engine, Host or Context as required. Normally, this valve would be used at the Context level.
