WebDAV

About

Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning - enhancements to the HTTP protocol that turn the Web into a document database that enables collaborative creation, editing and searching from remote locations.

IceWarp Server WebDAV service provides (combines) the following:

  • CalDAV (RFC)

  • CardDAV

  • GroupDAV

  • Web Folders

For detailed information about setting of desktop clients, refer to the Desktop Clients chapter.

For information about WebFolders, refer to the WebFolders section.

This module (WebDAV – WebFolders) is free - it is available even without a license for GroupWare.

Description

URL

URL consists of:

  • The server address or alias: <mail.domain.com/

    This address (alias) has to be set in a client exactly otherwise synchronization will not work.

    Note: Default ports (80 for HTTP, 443 for HTTPS) are not specified. The use of different ports for control service is possible - they have to be defined on the System – Services – General tab in the Control service (32000 here).

  • The path specified by IceWarp Server – webdav

    Note: This part of URL (folder) can be changed provided that its content is moved into the newly defined folder.

Note: Access mode to the service can be set on both domain and user levels. See the appropriate places ([domain] - Policies, [user] - Policies).

Warning: If you want to use SmartAttachor document editing, WebDAV has to be running and URL has to be set properly.
