MS Office has native support of WebDAV, you can quickly setup a WebDAV server in Apache for testing, instead of spinning up the fully functioning SharePoint Server.

Here is the quick settings for setting up a Apache WebDAV server.


a2enmod dav
a2enmod dav_fs


And then add a new site in /etc/apache2/sites-available/ as followed.

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName webdav.jimmysyss.com
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
        ServerAlias webdav.jimmysyss.com
        DocumentRoot /var/www/webdav

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

        <Directory />
                Options FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride None
        </Directory>
        <Directory /var/www/webdav/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AllowOverride None
                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
        </Directory>

        Alias /svn /var/www/webdav/svn
        <Location /svn>
                DAV On
        </Location>
</VirtualHost>
