Thanks, Paul. I ran "python setup.py install" in both the PyXML and PyWebDAV directories. A lot of things happened and are added into those directories and I guess it will be OK. Next step, the startup-script "davserver". There is no script as such, also not in \python27\tools\scripts. I found 2 similar scripts: 1. server.py in D:\Python27\WebDAV\PyWebDAV\DAVServer 2. WebDAVServer.py in D:\Python27\WebDAV\PyWebDAV\DAV Which one is the one to use? I also configured config.ini in D:\Python27\WebDAV\PyWebDAV\DAVServer In this file it says: "# Auth Database Table, Must exists in database prior to firstrun dbtable=webDav # Create User Database Table and Insert system user" I created in MySQL a database called webDav. I can create a table called User, but how many fields? With regards, Fokke
