WebDAV & Client Certificates
I am trying to use the WebClient on Windows 7/IE9 to SharePoint 2010 which is secured by client certificates. I hope this is the best place as it seems to be a browser/os issue as Windows XP/IE7 works just fine.
The issue is when a client attempts to open a SharePoint Library in Explorer View, the user is prompted for their certificate and then prompted for their user id and password twice before failing.
As this is going through TMG 2010, I can see a 443 request when the certificate gets requested, but after the cert is selected, TMG throws a response stating a client certificate is required. Therefore, it looks like a certificate is not being sent
when using IE9.
I have tried various things including add the site to a Local Intranet zone, updating the Web Client\Parameters registry setting for AuthForwardServerList, etc...
I guess I am missing some sort of setting as I am unable to make any difference in the responses from the server.
Any help would be appreciated!
