WebDAV user has to login via the portal

[Wolfgang Joppich, geändert vor 10 Jahren.]

Hi,

Liferay offers the WebDAV interface, which I am happy to use with my Liferay 6.0.6. Then I encountered the problem that a new WebDAV user has to login into the portal, before he can access the WebDAV interface. This behaviour is documented in:
http://www.liferay.com/community/wiki/-/wiki/Main/WebDAV/maximized#section-WebDAV-Login+Credentials (see the 'Note')
This is veeery awkward for me. Does anybody know a workaround for that? I want users to be able to use the WebDAV interface right away and I do not want to perform a login via the portal everytime I change their password.

Thanks,
Wolfgang

Switch to Basic auth and that should do it.

You are a genius!
First I thought you meant the property basic.auth.password.required in the portal.properties, but then I found out that you meant the web-xml of the tunnel-web. Cool stuff. Works great! Thanks!
