AW: [CalendarServer-users] WG: authentication with MS

[Kervin L. Pierre]

Hello,

Lars, what type of of authentication are you using?

I don't know if this is related but in the past I have
had trouble with the MSXML COM/C++ stack and
Digest authentication with Calendar Server.   But
Basic authentication worked.  I didn't try Kerberos.

Since then I've switched to the System.XML .Net
stack and haven't had a chance to test digest and
kerberos authentication.  But at least Basic still
works.

I've seen similar issues with other servers too.
I had to switch from HTTP 1.1 to HTTP 1.0
because there was an issue with the .Net
HTTP stack and Tomcat ( think it dealt with
HTTP Continuations )

Regardless, which stack is at fault ( probably
MS :-)  ),  It may help a lot of client developers
if the Calendar Server HTTP stack was tested
and found compatible with the MS COM
( MSXML ) and .Net ( System.XML ) HTTP
stacks. 

 I would imagine that a lot of CalDAV clients
will be based on these.

Best regards,
Kervin
