Saw the post on discussions.info.apple.com and was wondering if other people can confirm (I tested with a new XP client and had problems getting authenticated as well).
As the title says, XP clients seem to have connectivity issues getting through to an OS X Server WebDAV share…
Hoping this is something that’s just a setting issue!
Log entries:
(connecting from a Mac)
user [05/Feb/2003:22:26:53 +0900] “OPTIONS /public/WebDAV/ HTTP/1.1” 401 483
(connecting from a Windows 2000 machine)
user [05/Feb/2003:22:33:41 +0900] “PROPFIND /public/WebDAV/ HTTP/1.1” 401 483
(connecting from an XP machine)

I haven’t tried it, but I wouldn’t be surprised given that XP caused SMB problems (which Apple fixed in 10.2.x). Can you try setting up WebDAV on, e.g., a Linux machine and see if there are similar problems?
Unfortunately, all my hardware is tied up right now…
However, strange thing is that I can connect to iDisk from the XP client.
Guess I’ll put a call into Apple Support to find out what’s going on.
Cheers.

I was having trouble getting my XP clients to connect to my Panther Server DAV folder. The solution I found was to add a “#” sign to the end of the DAV path. Apparently there is a bug in Win XP which causes XP to think it is connecting to an SMB share and not a DAV folder. The “#” sign forces XP into connecting to a DAV folder. Voila, problem solved!
As an example, when connecting in XP us the following as your path:
Thanks! This solved the problem for me.
