OSX Finder read-only Windows IIS WebDAV

2

I have a WebDAV set up on my Windows 2008 R2 server using IIS. When I try to mount it on OSX using finder I have read-only access. What do I need to change to get full access?

I have added my account to the WebDAV rules, I have rw permissions on the disk and enabled simple_lock.

Update:

  • I can mount the location on Windows machines

Have you verified that it's not a Finder issue, e.g. by connecting using Transmit or Cyberduck? – Daniel Beck – 2011-06-03T20:49:34.763

Whoa! Weird combination of technologies there... – Codebling – 2011-06-03T20:54:06.070

@Daniel, I can't seem to mount it on Transmit.. I am running the WebDAV on a port different from 80, but I don't think that should be a problem. – Jens – 2011-06-03T21:05:40.170

Can you mount it on any system other than the one server? – Daniel Beck – 2011-06-03T21:20:48.023

I can mount it on my Windows 7 machine without any problems. – Jens – 2011-06-04T09:19:47.033

Do you have Active Directory or any other Windows-only networking stuff running that might interfere? Are you able to connect to the WebDAV volume from any Windows machine, or only machines properly set up for your specific networking environment? – Daniel Beck – 2011-06-04T09:40:54.183

No active directory. Mounting works from other Windows machines. – Jens – 2011-06-04T09:43:49.660

OS X Finder requires a WebDAV server that supports WebDAV Class 2 locking. The windows WebDAV only supports WebDAV Class 1.

Use another product such as BarracudaDrive that supports WebDAV Class 2. http://barracudaserver.com/products/BarracudaDrive/

I thought IIS 7.5 had this supported. I have been able to connect with write access with enabling anonymous verification enabled. – Jens – 2011-06-09T08:41:56.653
