Issue: I'm having issues getting WebDav to work in the command line on Windows XP, both Service Pack 2 and Service Pack 3.

C:\>net use z: https://mywebsite.com/software/
System error 67 has occurred.

The network name cannot be found.

I have tested this with two webdav server. Both Ubuntu Apache and I Windows Server 2003 IIS. Both get the same result.

Things That Haven't Worked:

  1. I've installed the following Microsoft KB on my XP machines with no avail.
  2. I've also found the following reg key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters UseBasicAuth REG_DWORD 1

  3. I try the following when trying to use a few work around I've dug up on the web, all producing the same result.

    net use z: https://mywebsite.com/software
    net use z: https://mywebsite.com/software#
    net use z: https://mywebsite.com/software/
    net use z: https://mywebsite.com/software/#
    
  4. I've also tried all the above combinations adding a user into it /user:user and /user:user@domain.

  5. I've also tried using http:// rather than https://.

  6. I've tried "\\server.com@ssl:443\folder"

  7. I've gone over networking related issues as @WesleyDavid had pointed out.

Things that do work:

  • I can connect to the webdav folder via the URL and with mapping in Network Place, with XP. But the command line doesn't work (I need a drive letter).
  • Windows 7 works perfectly with the same command.

My Delemma:

I need this to work with a drive letter. What else can I try to get this working?
