Hi, why your server need administrator rights?
Sphorium WebDAV works without admin rights...

The administrator rights are needed because users can change the files on the server. In order to do so, the server offers methods like DELETE, MKCOL, PUT and so on.
The rights of the users are limited to their Windows user rights, because the server uses Windows authentication.

You don't need administrator rights on server, you only need modify rights in filesystem on selected folder.

I can see the argument here, if the folder has the proper security then admin wouldn't be needed, the identity of the person coming in would be sufficient. Maybe it should be an option in the constructor or something that people can turn on or off depending on preference.

Remember you also need admin rights to listen on port 80 on Windows.
