WebDAV : how to serve files from other servers

I have installed WebDAV in my webserver with windows authentication enabled so users can connect to it using their username and password.

As a test, I set up a virtual folder under IIS which points to a folder on the webserver to act as a WebDAV share : this worked fine and users can navigate the folder content over the internet.

However...here's the problem...

The files I actual need to share are not located on the webserver, they are located on other servers. I use DFS to bring all of the various shared folders together under a single root so that it's easy for the users to understand and use them.

I want the users to see the same structure when using WebDAV as they do when on the LAN.

So, how do I configure the virtual folder under IIS to point to the DFS root in such a way that external users can use WebDAV to access the shares ?
 
Bump...

Does nobody know how to set up a WebDAV share in IIS to share out folders from other servers ?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
