Webdav Server Settings; Iis For Windows 2000/2000 Server/Xp/Server 2003 - Canon image RUNNER 3245 Getting Started Manual

WebDAV Server Settings

The WebDAV sending function is a function for sending scanned image files, image files for received
faxes, or image files sent from the User Inboxes 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 2000/2000 Server/XP/Server 2003

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. 3-6.) 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.
•
The machine does not support sending to a Windows Vista computer using WebDAV. However, it is possible to view
documents sent to the WebDAV server on the network from Windows Vista.
•
When connecting to a WebDAV server via a proxy with Digest authentication set using IIS 6.0, it is necessary to
set <Use Chunked Encoding with WebDAV Sending> to 'On' from the control panel of the machine. For more
information on this procedure, see e-Manual > Send/Fax.

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.
