Outlook/Webdav Gurus Look In

[Waylander]

Okay I managed to public a calendar from Outlook 2007 via office online to restricted user group essentially so it was available to other users on my OC

but they cannot make additions to it by this method.

I was advised that if instead I install IIS, create a virtual directory and publish to it via webdav I would be able to allow other users to add entries to it.

So i dug out tht old XP Pro disc and installed IIS, mde sure its service works, created a virtual directory on D:\calendar and tried to publish to it.

BUt everytime I try I get as far as putting in username/password and then it says upload failed: server returned an error.

Any idea what might be the problem?

Check the permissions of the folder, make sure that the user you are using to access the folder can do so.

[Waylander]

yep. Permissions for it are for all local users inc Admin.

Have you got authentication turned on?

[Waylander]

yes and I disabled anonymous authentication.

Here is a snapshot of my options [as per images]

I am certain is it just some setting I have not done properly...

so to upload it I do the following:

rt click "calendar" in Outlook 2007 from my user.

publish to webdav

"location" = http://thomas/calendar

[i set the VD as D:\calendar; I read that address HAS to be in the format http://local_machine/folder]

it gives the "uploading" flash

then I am asked to enter user name password so I enter mine

Then get the Upload failed. Server returned an error.
