Sean,
Maybe this quote from the FAQ helps...:
"
15: I get 'Not authorized to access this resource' on other URLs =20
There are a number of specific reasons why Xitami may return this:=20
1.. The resource you are accessing is protected by a 'webmask' =
definition which excludes your PC.=20
2.. You are trying to browse a directory, but directory listings have =
not been enabled.=20
3.. You are trying to use an HTTP update method (PUT, DELETE, MOVE, or =
COPY) on a resource which has not been authorised for this.=20
4.. You are trying to run the WBA, but this has been disabled by the =
security:admin option.=20
5.. The URL refers to a Windows short filename when a long filename =
also exists. Xitami rejects this as being a potential security =
violation. You can switch this behaviour off by setting =
security:safepaths to 0.=20
6.. You're trying to do a HTTP PUT, DELETE, MOVE, or COPY operation, =
and specified an absolute Content-Location: or Destination: URI which =
did not have the same path as the request URI. Xitami rejects this =
because the authorisation was carried-out on the request URL, and using =
a different path for the Content-Location: or Destination: URL would =
violate this.=20
7.. A HTTP PUT, DELETE, MOVE, or COPY operation failed because of an =
access violation at the operating system level - for instance Xitami =
tried to write to a file which was marked as read-only.=20
In most of these cases, the reason for the error will be logged when you =
enable server debugging.=20

Subject: Re: [Xitami] HTTP Publishing
Thanks for the responses. Paul is correct, I'm just trying to update a =
web page via an HTTP PUT using Netscape's Composer. My understanding is =
that this "Publish" feature I'm referring to uses an HTTP Put to update =
the html pages to servers. I hit the server, but it returns an "the =
server responded: You are not authorized to access this resource".
The page Xitami I'm referring that states it supports HTTP is under =
the User Authentication section=20
at: http://www.imatix.com/html/xitami/index3.htm#TOC18
Thanks for all the responses.
Regards,
Sean

Ervin,

No, I don't think he's referring to Frontpage. Just to HTTP's
'put' request. (See RFC 2068, under 9.6).
=20
Xitami indeed states somewhere that they have no intention
to support Frontpage and gives as reason that it is not properly
documented and that they're not in the business of reverse
engineering Microsoft software.
=20
So, since you claim FP to be a documented protocol, I would
be very interested in obtaining a link to that document!
Could you supply that to us?

What your trying to do id use FrontPage extensions. Xitami =
doesn't support=20
that protocal. FP extensions is a special way to change files on =
a web=20
server. I would recomend that you publish your pages with an FTP =
program.
Xitami does not now, nor will in the future support Front Page =
extensions.=20
This has been a hot topic in the past. If you're a savy enough =
programmer=20
Xitami is open source. And the FrontPage is actually a documented =
protocal=20
so you could in theory build FP compatibility into Xitami.
