WebDav Repository - MS Sharepoint Integration

[Former Member]

Hi Everybody,

I'm trying to apply the things I read in the article "Interoperability between SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0 and Windows SharePoint Services" (https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/9e891378-0601-0010-5386-a3387f1b161b).

It's about configuring WebDav repositories to access HTTP Systems. I'm trying to acces documents stored in MS Sharepoint.

I'm having a problem with security.

The IViews I use to access the WebDav repository I defined are working well and showing the content stored in MS Sharepoint.

My problem is that those IViews are showing the info with the privileges granted to the user I've used to define the HTTP System.

In that config screen, there's a checkbox that says "Same user domain". Its hint says that if it is checked, the credentials of the logged user would be forwarded to the http server, but this is not happening.

I'm logging on to SAP Portal with an user that has no permissions in Sharepoint and i'm still seeing the documents and I can even upload new documents.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance, Fede.

Hi all,

the WSS WebDAV Connector (aka "SharePoint WebDAV Connector, SWC) was released some days ago and a new Interoperability Section on Microsoft-sap.com is now live.

See http://www.microsoft-sap.com/technology.aspx --> SAP Enterprise Portal (EP) for the WSS WebDAV Connector.

In the SWC documentation there are some hints for the configuration of the security requirements / authentication types which should be helpful for your problem.

Kind regards,
