Eliminating 413 Request Entity Too Large responses when uploading large files via WebDAV

VT220 terminal
Transferring files to a system using Apache's mod_dav to export its filesystem via WebDAV, any time I tried to transfer a file over 1GB my local client (Cyberduck) would fail with the error: Unexpected response (413 Request Entity Too Large).

The fix was simple, once I sat down to actually implement it; I just added a LimitRequestBody entry into httpd.conf and restarted the server:

[root@server ~]# vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf 

...

EnableSendfile on


LimitRequestBody 0

[root@server ~]# systemctl restart httpd
