Is there a ways to set the authentication method to digest for WebDAV profiles? It looks like it only supports basic authentication.
WebDAV Connection Support for Digest Authentication

I get an HTTP 401 error. When I enter credentials to make the WebDAV profile, the dialog box has the following two lines at the top. (Note that they are getting cut off. So, I can't see all the text):
Line 1: "The server {url} is asking for your username and password. The "
Line 2: "Warning: Your username and password will be sent using basic authentication on a conne"
It's telling me that it is using basic authentication when I try to set up the profile.
Using curl from a terminal window, the following happens:
1. I am able to download a file when I explicitly set the authentication methods to --digest or --anyauth. Format used: curl -u {user_id} --digest -O {webdav_url}
2. I get an HTTP 401 error if I leave out the authentication method or specify --basic. Format used: curl -u {user_id} --basic -O {webdav_url}
Based on the result of the #1 case, it appears that our WebDAV server is telling curl which authentication to use. We don't have basic authentication enabled which seems to be indicated by the result of case #2.

Hello,
Looking this over, either the server is sending us back bad information, or we aren't parsing the style it is sending back.
Would it be possible to get a connection, but not User/Pass, as remote access? Attempting to connect would help us determine what the server is sending vs. what we are parsing. We don't need login information (user/pass), just the attempted connection.
Alternatively, you can generate a Fiddler log (http://www.telerik.com/fiddler) of the connection attempt and email it in.
Either way, we can be reached privately at [email protected]
