Re: WebDAV and windows authentication?

Henning, thank you for your response.

I have previously set up the correct access rights (receive as/send as)
for the account. As I said, when I log in using the account/pwd in the
code, it works fine, but this is not my prefered method.

To clarify, previously the same application used ExOLEDB to access the
exchange store, but we are changing to WebDAV so that it won't have to
be installed directly on the server. The app was run as a service on
the exchange server by an account with correct access rights, and could
then access the exchange store without having to log in (no need to
provide account/pwd in the code).

I am not familiar with the concept of integrated security and hence
don't know if it is active. Could you help me out?

Thanks again!

Hello,

I am attempting an application that should access the exchange store
via WebDAV. The application should be able to access a random users
mailbox/calendar/contacts etc using an account that has access rights
to these. The app is written in C++ and uses XMLHttp for communication
with the exchange server.

When I specify the account details (uid/pwd) in XMLHttp.open (..)
everything works fine, but I would like to use windows authentication
instead. The application should be started as a service by an account
that has correct access rights. Can I use windows authentication to
access the exchange store and thus not have to specify uid/pwd when I
open a session to the server?

I have tried but it wont work, I get HTTP 401, access denied as
response from the server. Can this be done? Do I have to do something
special in the code for it to work?


Thanks for any help.
