Re: Cannot browse WebDAV in Windows XP
I had this XP log on issue, whereby xp insisted on appending a hostname to the login. It only happens on certain xp clients. In my case I was running slide on port 80 (for firewall reasons), so entering the url in the add network places wizard would be something like : http://x.x.x.x/slide/files This resulted in the issues as described. However when i appended the port number i.e. http://x.x.x.x:80/slide/files the issue stopped. That is XPO stopped appending a host and logged in perfectly. I'll add a cautionary note however, XP on some versions has an issue with slide running on port 80, it suffers from the infinite directory problem, where by the directory listing contains itself!!! Try explaining that one to your users. (This issues is know and can be seen under http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/webfolder-client-list.html as file-mismatch) You have been warned!! PS The solution is not to use port 80 which is a royal pain and defats the object in many cases!! PPS I am not actually running the app server on port 80 (root access!!), its being masqueraded via port 80 through the firewall Al On Mon, 21 Jun 2004 07:53:31 -0700 (PDT), Bernard Sirius [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Er, that doesn't work either on my machine.

Re: Cannot browse WebDAV in Windows XP
Are you using XP Home Ed? There seem to be some known problems with it, right slide-users? See e.g. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.jakarta.slide.user/3629 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.jakarta.slide.user/3632 PS: Sure you saw this http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/xp.html already?

Re: Cannot browse WebDAV in Windows XP
Thanks for the pointer... :-( these people describe the exact same problem as me, but they don't seem have a solution. Yes I read the xp directions. I will try to contact these people. I'm using XP Pro, not Home Ed. It's confusing indeed that these fundamental problems show up so seldom. --- Michael Vorburger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Are you using XP Home Ed?
