This is just a shot in the dark, but I think prior to 2.1 you got a 403 for: PUT XXXX
The client required instead: PUT XXXX YYYY Where YYYY is the uri it will have on the server. The only other hair pulling 403's I can remember where linux file permissions related. -Ryan -----Original Message----- From: Krishna Kankipati [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 7:38 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: 403 Forbidden Error when uploading a file using DAV Exploere Hi, I have Slide2.0 installed on Websphere 5.0 App server.
