WebDav Questions

I wonder if anyone can help me with a explanation of WebDav security
?

Am I right in saying that despite underlying file permissions, if WebDav
is enabled an attacker just needs to guess a username and password using
regular HTTP authentication to execute the method ? ie if delete is enabled,
 do I just have to guess the username and password to delete the index
page.

Can WebDav permissions / methods be set up on a per file basis or a per
server basis?

What does the connect method allow ?

Any good papers about WebDav security ?

Any good tools for exploiting WebDav (exploiting the HTTP methods etc,
 not the implementations)

Thanks
