Integrating WebDAV without SSO
If single sign-on (SSO) is not available for ELO Indexserver, you will have to change a setting in the WebClient Windows Service for WebDAV integration (Connect ELO as a drive function).
WebDAV, without SSOELO as drive, connect1. In Windows, open the Registry Editor desktop app.
2. In the registry, navigate to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters
3. Create a new DWORD value named BasicAuthLevel if it does not already exist.
BasicAuthLevel has the following values:
- 0: authentication with user name/password disabled
- 1: authentication with user name/password only for SSL WebDAV directories
- 2: authentication with user name/password only for SSL WebDAV directories
Attention: Setting the value 2
for BasicAuthLevel can enable potential hackers to steal passwords, as the authentication process is not encrypted.
4. If you can connect to ELO Indexserver via HTTPS, change the value to 2
. If only HTTP connection is possible, change the value to 1
.
5. Close the registry editor.
6. In Windows, open the Services app.
7. Select the entry WebClient and restart the service.
Your changes are applied. The Connect ELO as a drive function is now available.
