Hi All,
i've written some small piece of code using webDAV on msx2k. the
functionality required is similar to that of OWA - i need to get a list of
child folders of a given public folder. i'm using PROPFIND command for it
and passing the url to the PF. but it's not working the way OWA works !! the
problem is as follows :
1. if the authentication on Public store ( thru "public" virtual directory
in ISM on win2k ) is set to basic + integrated windows authentication, OWA
opens up the page "http://<machinename>/public" using the default windows
user credentials. my code, in this case shows me the folders using some
cached credentials.
2. if the authentication on Public store ( thru "public" virtual directory
in ISM on win2k ) is set to basic authentication, OWA pops up a dialog box
for username and password and then shows appropriate list of folders in the
tree view. in case of my code, the user is already authenticated when he
navigates to the default page of the web-based application, but somehow
these credentials are not getting conveyed along with the PROPFIND request
( to be specific - Open() method of IXMLHTTPRequest ) and then it gives an
error : "permission denied" !!
if i supply username and password ( as strings ) explicitly along with the
PROPFIND, my code works ( even in case 1 above ) but as it's not possible to
retrieve a user's paasword in text format, this option seems irrelevant.
what could be the problem ? can anyone help ?
regards,
Mandar.
