Configuring DAV - something's missing

I'm trying to get DAV to work, using the apache2 docs and this tutorial:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_dav.html
http://www.serverwatch.com/tutorials/article.php/10825_2176771_2

Seems like a pretty straightforward setup. In httpd2.conf I have:

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_fs_module modules/mod_dav_fs.so

# Location for DavLock database
DavLockDB /tmp/DavLock

apache2 restarts without error, and apache reports:

Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/2.0.48 (Mandrake Linux/6.7.100mdk) DAV/2 ....

So I'm satisfied that the modules are installed OK. Elsewhere I have a
container:


<Location /var/www/html/path>
Dav On

AuthType Basic
AuthName DAV
AuthUserFile /home/username/.DAVlogin

<LimitExcept GET HEAD OPTIONS>
require user username
</LimitExcept>
</Location>


/var/www/html/path exists and is 775
/home/username/.DAVlogin exists and is world readable

apachectl restart -- no errors

So all seems good. But I have not been successful in getting a WebDAV
connection to the server with any client (e.g. Goliath says "The server
specified does not support the specified protocol"). Nothing shows up in
apache's error.log. I'm at a loss. Any suggestions why DAV should not be
responding here?

Thanks,
Scot

Just to be sure, are there any firewall changes needed to enable DAV access?
As I understand it, it should all work over port 80 -- if you can serve web
sites, you can support DAV, with no firewall changes needed, right? I've
tried a few firewall experiments here, but no luck - DAV services still
unreachable.
