Webdav Server Settings; Iis For Windows 2000/Xp/Vista/7/2000 Server/Server 2003/Server 2008 - Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE 8105 Getting Started

WebDAV Server Settings

The WebDAV sending function is a function for sending scanned image files or image files sent from the mail boxes or Memory RX
Inbox of the machine, to a WebDAV server directory on the Internet or your intranet, using the WebDAV protocol.
This section describes the procedure for setting up a WebDAV publishing directory. Setting up a publishing directory enables
users who have the necessary access privileges to manage files in the directory.
It is recommended that the WebDAV server be configured by the network administrator.

IIS for Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/2000 Server/Server 2003/Server 2008

The procedure below uses items of Windows 2000 as an example. Depending on your environment, the items you see on the
screen may differ.

If IIS is not installed in the computer you are using, you will need to install the version of IIS for the operating system you are using before
entering these settings. (See "System Requirements" in "Sending Data, " on p. 2-6.) For installation procedures, see the manuals provided with
your operating system.
•
Server authentication is required for sending to a WebDAV server. Enable authentication before using a WebDAV server. The authentication
methods available for the server are Anonymous, Basic, or Digest authentication, and authentication errors will occur if you try to use
another authentication method. If the Anonymous authentication method is enabled, access rights are assigned to all users, and IIS always
performs anonymous authentication, even if either of the other two authentication methods are enabled. (The priority level is Anonymous
authentication > Digest authentication > Basic authentication.) If a high level of security is required, disable anonymous authentication. Use
the user names and passwords registered in the address book of the WebDAV server for the Basic and Digest authentication methods. For
instructions on how to set the authentication method for IIS, see the IIS documentation.
•
If you use WebDAV transmission with IIS 7.0, use either Basic authentication or Digest authentication.
•
When connecting to a WebDAV server via a proxy with Digest authentication set using IIS 6.0, it is necessary to set <Use Divided Chunk Send for
WebDAV TX> to 'On' from the control panel of the machine. (See e-Manual > Settings/Registration.)
•
If you use WebDAV with IIS 7.0, you must download the Microsoft WebDAV Extension from the IIS web site and install it separately. For details,
refer to the IIS documentation.
1
Right-click [My Computer] → in the [C:/Inetpub] folder, create a physical directory to use as the
sending destination .
The physical directory cannot be created in the [C: /Inetpub/wwwroot] folder, because the default DACL of wwwroot differs from that of
other directories.
2
Create a virtual directory .
☐ Start IIS → from the IIS snap-in, select the Web site to add a directory to.
☐ On the [Action] menu, point to [New] → select [Virtual Directory].
☐ Follow the instructions on the Virtual Directory Creation Wizard to complete the creation of the directory.
Specify the directory path created in step 1 as a physical path to the virtual directory.
For IIS 7.0, start IIS and right-click Default Web Site in the Connections panes on the left side of the IIS manager, then select [Add Virtual
Directory] and enter an alias and physical path.
