Vista WebDAV Client

P

Peter Gibbons

Hello,

1.) I'd like to download files larger than 4294967296 Bytes from a
WebDAV server with Windows's built in Client but Microsoft has crippled
it (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/900900). The maximum Value for the
FileSizeLimitInBytes is 2^32 (4GiB) and neither using QWORD nor setting
it to 0 does work. Is there a chance to get those files with the
explorer integrated webclient or do I have to use a normal browser?

2.) Is there a switch that makes the Windows webclient use http
compression? If I a put a zero-bytes-only file on the server I can
download it very fast with normal browsers (More than 20MBytes/second
through a 1 MBit/s DSL Line) but with the Windows integrated webclient
it takes ages.

3.) A browser that conatains a file with the following name cannot be
browsed with vista and XP: ABCð€ ð€¡ð€¢Î‘ΒΓÐБВصضطऄअआá±á²á³â˜¹â˜ºâ˜»â™šâ™›â™œ.txt

4.) Furthermore the Windows XP webclient cannot list the root directory
of a webdav share if it contains a file larger than 2GiB !!!


Regards,

Peter
