No content in webdav

Hi there. I'm trying to set up the webdav sync with my zotero account and am running into some problems. I've got a cpanel account here and I've managed to get access to the webdisk (Cpanel's webdav service). When I add the webdav parameters to zotero's preferences for sync and then click "verify server" zotero creates the folder in my webdav account and says "File storage is successfully set up." However, when zotero syncs, I'm not getting any files at all added to that folder in my webdav! And I've double-checked there are actual files to put there.

I'm running Windows w/ Vista. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Might be this.

Thanks, that was it. By the way, could you point me to a place (or perhaps create one) that explains the files that are uploaded to webdav. That is, what the zip files relate to in the zotero database, etc.?

Thanks.

Thanks, you folks are great. Exactly what I wanted to know. I'm trying to prepare myself in advance for any questions I might get from faculty wanting to use the zotero sync!
