Try sending a GET request to your URL. If you get a 404 status
returned, the URL is wrong. If you get a 401, then the credentials
are wrong.

Thanks Mr Lee,

F.Y.I.

Actually under different network configuration we get diff. error message
numbers.
And the answer you gave is generalize. I want solution using WebDAV.

e.g. If we gave proxy settings and Wrong ExchangeURL and/Or User Credentials.
we get error message number as 440. And if we remove proxy settings then we
get Error number 401. But For proxy settings too we get 440 error.

Thanks Any Ways,

Sumit

Hello,

a 440 error is "Login-Timeout", which occurs, when you have enabled
Form-Based authentication. You must do a manual login (see
http://www.infinitec.de/articles/exchange/webdavwithfba.aspx).

Best regards,
Henning Krause
