Ical 2.0.1 Publish to Webdav Server

[coreyhead]

Hello!

I have upgraded to Tiger and since then have been unable to publish my calendar to my local WebDAV server. This worked fine before the upgrade. After the upgrade, I can still connect to the WebDAV server via the Finder (Go->Connect to server->etc.). However, iCal gives me an authentication error--even when I'm connected to the same server via the Finder using the same authentication. I have deleted all my keychains with regard to this server and re-typed passwords and usernames at least 50 times...still get the authentication errors in iCal.

Is iCal looking for a different kind of authentication than the Finder? Is there a way around this problem that you've heard about?

Thanks!
Corey

We've just had a discussion in a danish news group regarding this very same problem. It seems as if iCal !dosn't! send the authentication even though it says so. See these log extracts:

The first block is from an upload of a file using Finder - no problems
The second is an attempt of uploading a calendar through iCal.
Note, that in the second block the username - s022518 - is missing from the log lines.

The server is Apache 2.0.55 with all the bells and whistles on a Linux box.
MacOS X 10.4.2 Client / iCal 2.0.2 (1038)
