Point your WebDAV client to:
- HTTP: http://[your_server]/ktwebdav/
- HTTPS: https://[your_server]/ktwebdav/

Introduction
This procedure sets up a WebDAV connection for KnowledgeTree Open Source.
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=907306
Steps
Perform the following steps:
1. Download and install KnowledgeTree.
2. In your WebDAV client, use the following URL:
http://[your_server]/ktwebdav/ktwebdav.php or, https://[your_server]/ktwebdav/ktwebdav.php On certain clients, you will need to replace http:// or, https:// with webdav:// or webdavs://
Note: KnowledgeTree Commercial uses /baobab.php; KnowledgeTree Open Source uses /ktwebdav.php
Note: Authentication under Windows XP requires that you append the port to the hostname - e.g. http://[your_server]:80/kt3/baobab/ KnowledgeTree Open Source users, use http://[your_server]:80/kt3/ktwebdav/
3. Optional: Allow 'write' access to WebDAV clients - Edit KnowledgeTree's config.ini file to set safe mode to 'off' (safemode = off)
Note: 3rd Party WebDAV clients are limited to read-only mode in the default installation.
How to enable write mode for older KnowledgeTree versions:
To enable write mode, you need to edit the config.ini file in the KnowledgeTree config folder to turn off SafeMode. The file is created by default on first use of the KnowledgeTree Integration Server.
For newer versions:
This setting is in Administration >>System Configuration >> Client Tools Settings >> WebDav
