Hello,

We've been doing some research here and have found some information about WebDAV on windows 7 regarding a bug in server-discovery for windows 7. The bug details when the root of the website is not WebDAV enabeld (as I think alfresco is not). The url I got the informaiton from is here (http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/webdav-redirector-list.html#issue-server-discovery) and the MS link is here (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=831805).

To get round this I thought of making the root of the website WebDAV enabled (or automatically forwarding a call to <server>:7070 to <server>:7070/alfresco) - is this an idea? Is the issue I found above even of any concern or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Cheers,

Neil

Hello,

Another point to bear in min here is that when the registry hack is made in windows & the folder actually appears windows explorer of Windwos 7 but it shows a connection error to
\\localhost:7070\DavWWWRoot\alfresco. I getting pretty desperate here if anyone helps me to solve this I'll put 100 GBP into any charity or open soruce project (as long as it is not offensive!) that the correct answerer leads me to.

Neil
