How to access an Exchange 2007 public folder via WebDav?

Question

In Exchange 2003 I could connect via WebDav to a public folder via a URL similar to:

https://mail.myserver.com/Public/My%20Public%20Folder/

I'm trying to do the same thing in Exchange 2007 but cannot figure out the proper URL for a public folder.

Answer 1

Apparently this should not have been sop difficult.

Even though OWA doesn't use the same URLs, via WebDav I can use the exact same URL schema.

For example: https://mail.my2003server.com/Public/My%20Public%20Folder/ turns into https://mail.my2007server.com/Public/My%20Public%20Folder/

Answer 2

I recently had the same problem with an upgrade, though on an SBS server. It took a while to work through as the WebDAV interface has now been "deprioritised", however after much debugging I found the following.

1. OWA authentication is now in an /owa not in /exchange and you can't change it.
2. Authentication had been changed to require NT authentication (and I think OWA authentication)

These were the problems not so much that the folder had had changed location. In my case I altered my program to correct the security however altering some of the virtual web permissions, I think, also gave me access.
