Here is how I tweaked my private apache config:

LoadModule put_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_put.so 
<Directory /var/www> 
   EnablePut On 
   AllowOverride Options 
   <Limit PUT DELETE PATCH PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK> 
      Order allow,deny 
      Allow from XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 
   </Limit>
</Directory>

(I'm not Apache guru at all, if you have a better solution. A require valid-user directive could be usefull here ;) Then in the firefox extension window, specify the path '/xbel.xml' for instance. Upload window displays an 'unexpected error', but it uploads successfully to /var/www/xbel.xml.

Of course, your apache user (www-data ?) must have write-rights on /var/www. I didn't tested HTTPS though.

How does it work ? I tested the http put without success. It doesn't even try to contact the server.
