3rd Party WebDAV Clients

Performance and functionality on 3rd party WebDAV clients is unverified. In order to protect your repository, we recommend that you take a cautionary approach when using these clients with the KnowledgeTree Integration Server. Limited access is provided to the following 3rd party WebDAV clients.

  • Windows XP Explorer WebDAV
  • KDE Konqueror
  • Novel NetDrive
  • cadaver 
We are continually extending the functionality of 3rd Party Clients for KnowledgeTree Integration  
Server and KnowledgeTree Tools for Windows. For more information on the various WebDAV clients,

Performance, and Known Issues on some 3rd Party WebDAV clients

  • Windows (XP, Vista and Novel) - does not support overwriting
  • Vista - double clicking on folders won't open the folders; open folders using the tree navigation on the left pane, or right click on the folder, then select 'Open'.
  • Goliath (Mac OS X) - does not support support copying and moving of documents or folders
  • Mac OS X Finder - spaces in folder and document names are not supported, and are therefore replaced with a '+' sign.
  • Locking is not supported on 3rd Party WebDAV clients

Important - Enabling 'write' mode on 3rd Party WebDAV Clients

3rd Party WebDAV clients are limited to read-only mode in the default installation. To enable write mode, edit the config.ini file in the KnowledgeTree var folder, and turn off SafeMode. The file is created by default on first use of the KnowledgeTree Integration Server.

Windows users - Web Folders Update

Windows users who want to use Windows Explorer WebDAV must install the Web folders update, available at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=907306.

Authentication

Authentication under Windows XP (KnowledgeTree Commercial users) requires that you append the port to the hostname - e.g. http://www.hostname.com:80/kt3/baobab/ KnowledgeTree Open Source users, use http://www.hostname.com:80/kt3/ktwebdav/
