Thanks, I've done much searching - hence why I'm finally posting here. Windows WebDAV is actually quite reasonable - a lot of what one reads on the internet is because people don't know how to configure it. It won't pass basic authentication across a connection by default, you have to turn it on and there are two different settings for allowing it over SSL only or a non-encrypted connection.
When connecting from a Windows client (any Windows client) I get a 'network path not found' error 0x80070035. I know the path is valid as I can reach it via other means, and other WebDAV clients. The main reason I think this is a Tomcat issue is that it was working just fine with v7.0 and no other Windows client changes (updates, software etc.) have been made. There wasn't anything specific in the Tomcat7 config that I needed to get the MS client to work, only on the client itself those registry changes as previously mentioned. I'll run a Wireshark trace and see what comes up, nothing in the Tomcat logs that I can see...

The various implementations over the years of DAV in MS Windows are a real horror story. As far as I know (but it varies according to Windows versions and patches, and even according to whatever other software is installed on the workstation) : - recent version of Windows will only accept to connect to DAV folders via HTTPS - recent and less recent versions of Windows will only accept to connect to a DAV folder, if that DAV folder is at the "document root" of the webserver In other words, for all practical purposes, you /have to/ use a third-party client. (WebDrive is another one which I know works) And if you don't, be prepared for a lot of support calls.. > > What happens when you try to connect with the Windows Mini Redirector? > Do you get a client error?
