Hi Wolfgang,
IIS6.0 inherits whole WebDAV functonality from IIS5.0. So yes, the
steps on IIS6.0 are almost the same. What you need to do additionally
is enabling WebDAV in IIS6.0's Web service extension folder.
"Is this also possible in IIS 6.0 with user authentication on the
share?"
Just confirm, do you mean if we also can specify a 'Connect As'
account in IIS6.0 for a UNC share virtual directory? If so, the
answer is yes.
Actually IIS also supports pass-through authentication feature: use
the authenticated user's identity to access the back-end resource on
remote share, but generally the feature only works for Basic
authentication but not NTLM(Windows integrated). So specifying a
'Connect As' account is a convenient way in common cases.

Directories Can Be

Last, essentially a WebDAV directory isn't special than any normal
web directories in IIS. To set up a WebDAV virtual directory, we just
have to make the directory able to be accessed via http, i.e: can be
browsed as http://server/directory/ . Then enable something options
like 'Directory Browsing', make sure FPSE and URLScan isn't installed
on the site...etc. After that, use IE's 'Open as Web Folder' function
to test it..
Please note the IE on a fresh installed Windows 2003 doesn't include
web folder client - A 'IE cannot open the URL as web folder' may
occur. In this case, you can test from a client machine with Office
installed. The web folder client first comes from Office Web
component.
Let me know if there is anything else.
Thanks.
