Write	Check this box to allow # PUT HTTP protocol requests. # PUT is used to upload files to a specified Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) on the <WEB>.
Executables	Check this box to allow executables (http://server.executable.cgi/exe/com) to be run on this web site.
WebDAV	Check this box to allow WebDAV extensions to be used on this web site. Briefly: WebDAV stands for "Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning". It is a set of extensions to the HTTP protocol which allows users to collaboratively edit and manage files on remote web servers. For more information about WebDAV, refer to its official portal http://www.webdav.org/ (tutorials, FAQs, ...) or see the description available at Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebDAV/
Keep open HTTP connections	Check this options to keep a connection open for a short time after a client request. This can significantly speed up client/server communications.
Maximum connections	Specify the maximum number of simultaneous connections that you wish to allow to this web site. Any requests when the limit has been reached will receive a "Server too busy" (Error 503) response.
