Since Windows Vista, we've had to resort to using various hacks, then
finally gave up and bought a 3rd-party WebDAV filesystem driver which
works beautifully (I'll give a shout-out to South River Technologies'
WebDrive product -- also does (S)FTP, S3, Google Drive, dropbox, etc.)

At some point, an unmodified version of Windows started refusing to
connect to a remote WebDAV share unless the type of authentication
being used was DIGEST -- no support for BASIC. The restriction was
supposed to have been dropped when using BASIC + HTTPS, but it still
doesn't seem to work.

My conclusion was finally that Microsoft felt no need to support the
WebDAV standard while simultaneously advertising such support, so I
went elsewhere for my WebDAV needs. (Plus, my Mac works flawlessly, as
do the various Linux implementations I've tried.)
