Getting Started > Miscellaneous Configuration Tasks > Configuring WebDAV on KnowledgeTree Community Edtion

This procedure creates a WebDAV connection for KnowledgeTree Community Edition.

Note: KnowledgeTree Commercial Editions customers who are using Microsoft Windows typically use KnowledgeTree Client Tools for Windows.

Note: The WebDAV dashlet on the KnowledgeTree Dashboard provides instructions for connecting to the WebDAV server. To connect to KnowledgeTree via a third-party WebDAV client, use http://127.0.0.1:8080/webdav/webdav.php.

Pre-requisites:

•	Commercially supported 3rd-Party WebDAV client

•	Windows users who want to use Windows Explorer WebDAV must install the Web folders update, available at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=892211.

•	KnowledgeTree, installed

Perform the following steps:

1.	In your WebDAV client, use one of the following URLs:

•	http://your_kt_install/ktwebdav/ktwebdav.php

•	https://your_kt_install/ktwebdav/ktwebdav.php

Notes:

•	On some clients you may need to replace http:// or, https:// with webdav:// or webdavs://

•	KnowledgeTree Commercial: use /baobab.php

•	KnowledgeTree Community Edition: use /ktwebdav.php

•	Authentication under Windows XP requires that you append the port to the hostname

- e.g. http://www.hostname.com:80/kt3/baobab/. KnowledgeTree Community Edition

users, use http://www.hostname.com:80/kt3/ktwebdav/

2.	(Optional) To allow write access to WebDAV clients, set safemode to 'off'. To do this

2.1.	Use your administrator credentials to log in to KnowledgeTree's web interface; then, go to Administration - System Configuration - Client Tools.

2.2.	On the Client Tools Settings page, locate the WebDAV configuration settings.

2.3.	Set the Safemode setting to Off.
