greetings, Programs.

I’m having trouble making webDAV(FS) connections over ssl. I can connect fine with a browser (e.g. Netscape), but attempting to command-K from the finder doesn’t work over https. it works fine over http, but not https.

attempting to access https://clientstemp.intrapromote.com/extranet via the Finder DAV never makes it into the log.

instead, it errors out as -36:

”
Connecting to https://clientstemp.intrapromote.com/extranet
The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in “https://clientstemp.intrapromote.com/extranet” could not be read or written.
(Error code -36).
”

which translates to:
-36 ioErr I/O error (bummers)

or, basically, a connection refusal from the server.

this is what gets logged at my server under the four scenarios (http vs https, Finder access vs Netscape access):

Finder DAV access logged to http://clientstemp.intrapromote.com/extranet :

Netscape DAV access logged to https://clientstemp.intrapromote.com/extranet :

my webDAV server supplier (Virtuoso) has no idea why this is happening, either… they tried it from their own clients to their own servers, same problem. upgrading from 10.2.8 Jaguar to 10.3.2 Panther didn’t help.

Obi-wan, you’re our last hope.
