Vista - WebDav

I just installed Windows Vista Business N. With my previous XP installation,
I could easily connect to a https-webdav location using Add Network Location.
Unfortunately, with Vista, I'm unable to pass the authentication. I'm -very-
sure that I'm using the right credentials. However, the auth dialog keeps
popping up.

I managed to get some logging from the Linux server I'm logging into
(samba.log):
[2006/12/07 17:41:36, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(319)
check_ntlm_password: Authentication for user [FLORIS] -> [FLORIS] FAILED
with error NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD
[2006/12/07 17:41:36, 3] smbd/error.c:error_packet(146)
error packet at smbd/sesssetup.c(1093) cmd=115 (SMBsesssetupX)
NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

With the same credentials, I'm able to login using a Win2000 computer.

Any thoughts on this?

Hi,

Some have reported that disabling IPv6 has resolved this issue. You'll find
it in the properties of the 'nic in Device Manager.

Thanks for your quick reply! I disabled the IPv6 option in the nic
properties, disabled it, and enabled it again. However, the problem still
exists. Also, the webserver reports the same error.

Hi,

So to be clear, did you try logging on while IPv6 was disabled?

Unfortunately, I don't know enough about Linux' server to tell you what else
to try. You may want to check in a 'nix group to see if others have run into
this with Vista. It may be that one of Vista's default networking protocols
isn't in a compatible format.

Maybe update Samba if you have not yet, a few Vista related things
have been fixed in the newer releases.

http://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-3.0.23d.html

If that doesn't help you could post your smb.conf ...

This would be the best solution.

Also, changing this setting in Vista should make things work:

- Click Start
- Click Control Panel
- Click System and Maintenance
- Click Administrative Tools
- Double-Click Local Security Policy
- In the left pane, click the triangle next to Local Policy
- In the left pane, click Security Options
- In the right pane near the bottom, double-click "Network security: LAN
manager authentication level"
- Click the drop-down box, and click "Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session
security if negotiated"
- Click OK

Hi Floris,
Can you try and see if you are able to re-produce the same problem if you
try to access this WebDAV resource via Internet Explorer? Also, can you check
to see if "net use * <https-webdav-resources>" works via command prompt?

thanks.

Hi Ather,

With IE, I'm now able to get the 'default' HTML page of the webfolder (after
I enter my credentials) by enabling 'Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session
security if negotiated' in the Administrative Tools section of the Control
Panel. Before that was enabled, this wasn´t possible.

However, if I try to open the location as a webfolder (using a link on that
default HTML page or by using the Add Network Location wizard), I keep
getting the auth dialog.

The net use command results in the following output:
---
C:\Users\Floris>net use * https://sub.server.ext/folder
Enter the user name for 'sub.server.ext': floris
Enter the password for sub.server.ext:
System error 67 has occurred.
The network name cannot be found.
---

Anyway, 'telnet sub.server.ext 443' does result in a connection.
