WebDAV with Exchange 2007 always returns 403 Forbidden

[Raymond]

Hi,

Microsoft suggests to use WebDAV when working with .NET managed coding with
Exchange server. I setup a new Exchange 2007 server and copy some coding from
Internet for .NEt to try sending and reading messages. However, the coding
always receives 403 Forbidden error.

Does I miss some important steps in configurating the 2007 server?

Must I enable WebClient service on clients or on the exchange server?
Any log I can examine to find out what's wrong?

Any hints from you will be very appreciated.

Thanks,
Raymond

What is the subcode for the 403 response? If it's 6 (the most common), then
you probably just need to use https in your store URLs, rather than plain
http .
