AS promised:

<VirtualHost 216.161.20.100:443>
ServerAdmin rob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/mysite
ServerName www.mysite.com
ServerPath /mysite
DirectoryIndex /cgi-bin/silver
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/html/mysite/cgi-bin/

the above site is for an SSL type client - a normal VH container with webdav 
turned on might look like this:
first server options:
# Note that from this point forward you must specifically allow
# particular features to be enabled - so if something's not working as
# you might expect, make sure that you have specifically enabled it
# below.
#
#Settings for WebDAV Server
#
#DAVLockDB/var/www/html/DAVLock/DAVLock
#DAVMinTimeout600
#DAVDepthInfinityOn

Now the container directives:
#<Directory/var/www/html/DAVdocs>
#DAV On
#AllowOverrideAuthConfig
#AuthName"DAVRestricted"
#AuthTypeBasic
#AuthUserFile/var/www/html/users
#<Limit PUT POST DELETE PROPFIND PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK>
#Requirevalid-user
#</Limit>
#</Directory>
AccessFileName .htaccess
<Files ~ "^\.ht">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
</Files>
now the VH container:
<VirtualHost 216.161.20.100:80>
ServerName www.mysite.com
DAVLockDB /var/www/html/DAVLock/DAVLock
<Directory /var/www/html/WebSites/www.mysite.com>

webdav is a special access "tool" for allow html editing via a browser, no ftp 
needed then. You may or may not want that, you must have apache compiled to 
use mod dav and have mod dav.

"#" is a "hash mark" which , when applied, makes the directive "unseen" by 
Httpd (and perl, for instance) in other words, a "#" turns the 
option/directive "off".

Apache is a name for an assortment of applications made by the people at 
apache.org, "Httpd" refers to the webserver it self.
