POAccessing a sharepoint using perl and webdav
text
Body
copied!<p>a similar question was asked in <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/494120/how-can-i-upload-a-document-to-sharepoint-with-perl">question 494120</a>, but IMHO was not really answered...</p> <p>I want to upload files to a sharepoint using perl/WebDAV (from a Win32 host). To achive this, I need to authenticate with KERBEROS on the server. After googling for hours and trying different approaches, I'm not able to open a connection. Current code is this:</p> <pre><code>my $agent = HTTP::DAV::UserAgent->new(keep_alive=>1); $agent->agent('Agent'); $agent->timeout(1000); my $d = HTTP::DAV->new(-useragent => $agent); $d->credentials( -user=>$user,-pass =>$pass, -url =>$url); $d->open( -url=>$url ) or die("Couldn't open $url: " .$d->message . "\n"); </code></pre> <p>When doing the $d->open(...), I always get "Couldn't open $url: Unauthorized. Negotiate". So, obviously the basic authentication doesn't work. </p> <p>Could anyone point me to the right path, please? I am not fixed to using WebDAV, any other mechanism would fit me as well. Just want to get it working...</p> <hr> <p><strong>Edit 1</strong><br> When using <code>LWP</code> along with <code>Authen::NTLM</code> (as suggested by <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4277340/accessing-a-sharepoint-using-perl-and-webdav/4649366#4649366">Madhur</a>) also doesn't work. It results in a <code>500 internal server error</code> on IIS as well as on Apache. Since the same error occurs on two different web servers (with two different NTLM implementations) I guess that there's gotta be a problem in the <code>Authen::NTLM</code> module. </p> <p><a href="http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/MARKBUSH/NTLM-1.02/NTLM.pm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Looking at the implementation</a> of <code>Authen::NTLM</code> it seems to me that the code is kinda reverse engineered and neither implemented based on a specification nor is it really configurable. What turns up the question why <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc236621" rel="nofollow noreferrer">the specification</a> wasn't used to implement the module...</p> <p>Is using NTLM along with Perl such an exotic use case?</p> <hr> <p><strong>Edit 2</strong><br> Based on Madhur's suggestion, I tried accessing the Sharepoint with Curl. This works. But sniffing the NTLM messages of Curl and those sent by Perl shows me, that the message format is somehow different.</p>
