RE: WEBDAV and Vista

I just replied to your other thread where you posted this problem. We'll need
to troubleshoot this in order to understand whether this is a problem in
Vista or whether the site may not be configured appropriately. From a command
prompt window, can you type in the following and see if it works: "net use *
<webdav_resource>" where the <webdav_resource> is the site you are trying to
access (E.g. http://groups.msn.com/testsite).

thanks
