Mapping webdav as drive - Windows 7

Since always I had a Public folder available via ftp and webdav but to be honest I never used webdav. Uploading files was always a pain via webdav.
Until yesterday when I found out that you can map a webdav folder as a drive under Windows.
net use x: "http:\\server.com\folder" /User:UserName Password
or if you preffer SSL
net use x: "https:\\server.com\folder" /User:UserName Password

I know most of you probably have "discovered" that amazing feature but maybe there is someone out there who still haven't 🙂

Re: Mapping webdav as drive - Windows 7

Hi guys,

I'm trying to connect my company NAS using the instruction but returned with:

System error 67 has occured.

Any idea on how to resolve this issue?

Re: Mapping webdav as drive - Windows 7

What model NAS do you have (also what firmware is it running). Is WebDAV configured in Frontview? Can you ping the NAS?

Re: Mapping webdav as drive - Windows 7

Is the NAS on your local LAN or are you accessing it over the internet?

I am accessing it over the internet. I'm in Malaysia and the ReadyNAS is in Aussie.

Your company firewall has to be set up to forward the https port to the NAS - otherwise the connection cannot be established.

They would likely prefer you to use a VPN. Either way you will need to work with your company's IT folks.
