The only way (I can think of) that you could possibly achieve this is to
have a FE/BE architecture (front end/back end). You can turn anonymous
access on on your front end and keep IWA/Basic turned on on your back end.
The FE is always going to need to communicate to the BE with IWA or Basic
authentication because mailboxes are tightly coupled with Active Directory.
I would not recommend running your FE in anonymous mode though. The better
architecture is to do it the way you already are doing it and store the
credentials with your app server. That is a common scenario by many
application developers.
I'm curious what you would be trying to do with WebDAV where you WOULDN'T
want to pass in credentials or why that is a problem.

| We have an application that communicates with Exchange via webdav. Our
| application server is not necessarily a Microsoft server, so I am
currently
| storing the Exchange credentials user/password in our application
server.
| Any client browser can then connect to our appserver and communicate with
| Exchange. We are looking for a way to connect to Exchange via Webdav
without
| having to store the credentials on our appserver. I have seen postings
on
| Kerberos and other mechanisms but have not seen a real solution posted.
Keep
| in mind our appserver could be a unix/solaris server. So is there
anyway
| that a client connecting to our appserver be authenticated so he can
connect
| to exchange.
|
| Thanks in advance,
|
