Abstract
Techniques are presented for allowing clients and servers in a computer network executing the WebDAV protocol to identify a specific version of a specific resource a specific version using a resource tag. The resource can be identified even though it has been changed at a server or at an off line local cache of a client that is disconnected from the network and then later re connected to the network for uploading. Also, a resource UID is presented that will not change despite changes to the URL or the resource tag of the resource. Each resource UID of each resource can be cached locally at a client and can be stored at network server in an index. The index allows the resource to be identified uniquely across a collection in a database at a server, across a database at the server, across the entire server, or across all servers in the network.
