    Hi,

    I set up a webdav server for my keepass database file which seems to work fine but at work, I am getting a 403 Forbidden error. I don't get this anywhere else. What I have noticed is that if I open the URL in Google Chrome, I get this error also but if I open it in IE, I get the pop up asking for the webdav credentials. I know that the work network has a proxy PAC and I have noticed differential behavior between IE and Chrome in the past as far as htpass authentication goes.

    Is my webdav server misconfigured or is this something that's just not going to work given my employer's network settings.

    Thanks!

    Error 403 means the server refused the request. The issue will most likely originate in one of the two areas you have already identified. Unfortunately, the topic of WebDav connections is not this forum's area of expertise.

    You say it works at work but not elsewhere? More info please.
    If you are attempting to open a webdav connection on a corporate network from the internet (home) then I would not expect it to work. Corporate networks are designed to prevent outside access to internal sites.

    cheers, Paul
