WebDAV is actually considered the preferred access method if previous
mailing list comments are to be belived. You may indeed configure Apache to
use all sorts of authorisation schemes. SQL database, Host user account,
Keberos, LDAP, Windows Domain, and more I'm sure. Check modules docs at
http://httpd.apache.org
With Apache running in SELinux or similar sandbox and using https with a
good encryption, I personally think it is the most secure and robust set up
you can use.
