Hi Uno. If I'm not mistaken, I think this question belongs on the Slide user mailing list rather than the Slide developer mailing list.

Hi Recently discovered the Webdav protocol and have been playing with it and my SharePoint Portal 2003 Server. Using java.net.HttpURLConnection i can connect to the server as simply as this without any username/password. ------------------------- URL url = new URL("http://srv/sites/site/file.txt";); HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection(); connection.setRequestMethod("GET"); System.err.println(connection.getResponseMessage() + " " + connection.getResponseCode()); connection.disconnect(); ------------------------- --> result: OK 200 Same with VB.NET 2003 but i have to set credentials to get authorized by obtaining the Windows credentials. ------------------------- Dim request As HttpWebRequest = CType(WebRequest.Create("http://srv/sites/site/file.txt";), HttpWebRequest) request.Method = "GET" request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials Dim respons As HttpWebResponse = CType(request.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse) TextBox1.Text = respons.StatusDescription & " " & respons.StatusCode ------------------------- --> result: OK 200 Using org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient it also succeeds but the only way i have found is by using NTCredentials like this: ------------------------- HttpClient client = new HttpClient(); NTCredentials creds = new NTCredentials("user", "pass", "", ""); client.getState().setCredentials(null, "srv", creds); GetMethod g = new GetMethod("http://srv/sites/site/file.txt";); client.executeMethod(g); System.err.println( g.getStatusLine()); ------------------------- --> result: HTTP/1.1 200 OK The Windows credentials (user name/password/domain) are same as for the sharepoint server so in .NET using CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials it works. java.net.HttpURLConnection works without supplying any authentication information, a bit strange. Now to the question. How can i using org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient successfully connect to the server by obtaining the Windows credentials automatically without having to type them in to client application. regards, Uno --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
