I probably should have that on my issues list, too (and cross-link the two issues). Does this issue have an KM article? In which webfolder versions does it occur? Well I will try to get some more version information from a couple of customers for completeness and feedback for yourself. This problem however is not confined to webfolders me thinks, I have seen this problem on the same system trying to connect to a Samba share, where Windows tries to add the domain name etc.. when one presents it with a straight user name like 'fred'. It is less of a problem with samba/CIF shares though because you can use the DOS 'NET USE' commands to map shares to drives etc.. providing usernames and passwords on the command line. It therefore must be related to Windows user/logon management and may not be specific to a dll. It may come down to whether the system is part of a windows domain or similar (again my familiarity with windows here is limited). Having said that adding the prot number to the webFolder address line does get around the problem so it should be documented from a webfolder/webdav perspective I guess. I am sure others must have experienced this, and would like to know if there are ways around it (rather than changing port numbers away from '80' Al -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Folders inside folders on Windows XP
Hi Guys I got a weird one here, for some reason when one of our clients looks into their webdav folder (using add a network place on Windows XP) They see the folder itself as a folder in its root listing!! For every folder the go into they see the folder they are in as well as its contents!! Its like facing mirrors going into the infinite. It only happens with their two XP systems, its ok with their Macs and regular browser views, and its ok when i look at it here from my test XP system!! Has anyone else experienced this issue before?? Anyone have any clues as to what might be going on or how to solve it? confused Al -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Maybe this one...: http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/webfolder-client-list.html#issue-folder-mismatch Excelent Julian, spot on thank you it was : 'folder-mismatch' 'When specifying port 80 explicitly in the URL (rather than letting the default apply), the webfolder fails to detect the entry for the parent collection from the PROPFIND/Depth:1 response body, displaying it as additional child collection.' from the link you gave. I changed the port from 80 to 8580 and bingo it works. The reason i use port 80 is because its a public service and port 80 gives me the least firewall issues with customers!! *Note* I also tell customers to enter the full URL including port into the address when they are adding a web folder (even though 80 is default of course) this prevents Microsoft's intefering user/login management automatically adding domain information to the user name!!
