  Sync WebDAV Authoring Rules with Database Reply Contact Hi all, I am trying to develop a webinterface to control the webdav authoring rules. The webinterface interacts with a SQL database to store each folders authoring rules. This rules can be modified within the webinterface. My question is, how can I sync the authoring rules stored in the database with them in application config. I looked at the post from trnsfrmrsr (http://forums.iis.net/t/1153161.aspx) and implemented a solution using the Microsoft.Web.Administration assembly. The problem with that is, that I have to run the IIS-process with sufficient rights to modify the application config - and that is not what I want. Is there another solution? I also tried to extend the basic authentication module (http://forums.iis.net/p/1152183/1889432.aspx) to check access against my database. With this solution, I would have only one authoring rules store and no syncing is required. But it is almost impossible to get it work properly. So, how can I realize this? Any suggestions, solutions?

  Re: Sync WebDAV Authoring Rules with Database Reply Contact You cannot store webdav authoring rules in a database - what you can do is to configure the webdav authoring rules to give access to everything for everybody and then implement your own authorization module (note authorization and not authentication) which reads its rules from the database and does the necessary authorization checks.
