Why? svn:externals is merely a property that can be edited at any time
to change what path it points at. The sequence would be:

1) set up webdav server and confirm that it is working;

2) change the svn:externals to point to the new server and update a
working copy and make sure that works (the main WC files will still be
accessed via svn://);

3) use 'svn switch --relocate' to rewrite the working copies to point to
the http:// instance

Seriously, if you are doing anything with Windows authentication, the
Apache support is much more mature (and works today without waiting for
1.5.0)...
