    WebDAV and URLAuth

    Hi, 

    I'm currently trying to set up a WebDAV to access files held on a fileserver. I've got it all working when URLAuth isn't in the picture - kerberos delegation of credentials all the way through etc. I need to include some form of access control on the URL itself - DACLs on the file system aren't enough for what I need.

    URLAuth looked promising - it's installed and configured properly. It even works providing users don't want to upload files. And that's the problem.

    I've been through the normal MS guide to setting it up, read all the docs I can find etc and there's nothing out there that either says it isn't possible or tells me how to do it!

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Dylan.

    Why not ?

    The contents of the WebDAV are actually all the files associated with a website. So users who use the site need read access to the files (the site is run on a different server) so the ACL has to have at least read enabled for those users. That would let them get at the site source via the WebDAV - even with list disabled, they could have a good go at looking for files based on the visible URLs on the rendered site.

    Thanks for the suggestions.

    Unfortunately those articles are all on IIS 7.0 - and I'm currently stuck with IIS 6.0.

    Oh well... might look at trying another approach.
