TOMCAT WEBDAV question

Hi 
I am trying to use Tomcat's implementation of WEBDAV for my file upload requirement .After deploying webDAV as a web folder, I need to open to webdav as a webfolder, and upload files by dragging them over from Windows Explorer to IE . 
 
By default, Tomcat�s webDAV does not have a configurable property where we can set the rootpath of where the files will be uploaded to (eg. C:/tmp).  I think TOMCAT�s implementation �PUTs� the file based on a relative path to the webdav web app directory .
 
Right now, when you drag a file over to the webdav folder, it�s treated as a �PUT� method, and it will invoke �DefaultServlet��s service() to do the uploading.
 
Do you know if it is possible to set an absolute root path with Tomcat's webDAV ? if it's not configurable, how would we change the code to do this ? 
 
I have been looking at WebDAVServlet, but found no solution yet how to control where the files will be sent to .
