Hi!

I am trying to set up webDAV folders using digest authentication. The
event log shows the account authenticating correctly and everything
works when trying to access a folder that is on the web server, but when
trying to access a folder on another machine through a UNC name, after 3
attempts, IIS returns:

"You are not authorized to view this page - You do not have permission
to view this directory or page due to the access control list (ACL) that
is configured for this resource on the Web server."

This occus, even if the authenticating account is a domain
administrator. It is also clearly not a straightforward permissions
problem, because the account has access when using basic authentication.

It is almost as if, IIS does not have enough or the correct information
to complete the network request when using digest authentication, but
somehow does have what it needs for local access.

Any help would be appreciated.

regards,
Alan.
