Webdav Windows 7

Hello folks..

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to get my readynas duo webdav to work with Windows 7; I've got my account and shares setup and can access them from my browser but when I try to map them in windows 7 I get an error.

I've been reading lots of posts around the internet that its a Windows 7 issue, I believe they had it in vista and Microsoft patched it but it remains in Windows 7, something to do with authentication that microsoft has changed or something...


What can I do to get this to work, without modifying my registry?

  • The common authentication problem in windows 7; its to do with Digest Authentication that Microsoft has forced windows 7 to use instead of Basic Authentication. Which results in a error when trying to Map Webdav shares over the internet.
  • Hi guys!
    Is there any update on that issue with webdav access from win7?
