Access to a computer disk via WiFi / Internet using the built-in Symbian client (using the example of Nokia N86, Win7 and IIS6.1)

PS Just transferred the old topic to Symbian

I recently bought myself a new phone - this is my first Symbian phone. Nokia N86 8MP works under the control of Series S60 fp3, and there are plenty of chips in it that the manufacturer did not bother to talk about in the manual or on the web (Remote Disks, XDM Profile, configurations, etc.).
One of these chips is remote drives (remote web drive). What is it and where is it - we can only guess. The first thing that comes to mind is that this functionality is needed for online backup. Only trouble with him, with online backup. In 2009, most services began to either sell their services at a high price, or simply closed. I found one of these services with 1 gig of free space (box.net), set up a remote disk and even managed to connect to it, but I didn’t see the list of files and / or directories. The next thing we managed to find in the web is that the application “deleted disks” is, in fact, a WebDAV client. Further it is simpler - search by the words WebDAV Win7, and, it turns out, the WebDAV module is included in IIS already from version 5.
Well, to kill a few days in the fight against IIS in an attempt to share daddy with a computer for the phone is a sacred thing. It is important that everything is done using standard Windows and Symbian tools, without any additional $ 0.99 there. Go.

1. Install IIS. IIS6.1 is included in the delivery of some editions of Windows Vista / 7, you only need to enable it. To do this, go to Start -> Control Panel, then Programs -> Turn Windows features on or off.
   
   Tick ​​off components in Internet Information Services groups, as shown in the picture. Absolutely, we need IIS Management Console - to manage the server, standard http chips, basic and windows authentication, and most importantly, WebDAV Publishing.
   After all components are installed, click the windows (start) button, type iis and start the management console from the search results. In the tree on the left we find the default web site (default web site), make sure that it is running. Checks browser performance: http: // loclhost . The browser should show a stub picture of IIS.
   Great, half done.
   
2. Add a user to the system (control panel -> User Accounts and Family Safety ...), I think everyone knows how to do it
   
3. Select the directory for data storage. By default, this is the root of the web server (C: \ inetpub \ wwwroot), but you can choose any other directory. It is important to give the user whom you created in the previous step full rights to this directory (right click on the folder - properties - security ...)
   
4. We begin to edit the properties of the web site:
   
   
5. Enable basic authentication (Authentication):
   
   
6. Turn on Directory Browsing:
   
   
7. Configure WebDAV Publishing:
   
   
8. We give access to the server to our user:
   
   
9. All set up is complete. But, before typing logins / passwords on an uncomfortable phone keypad, you need to make sure that everything works. Here the thing is - if everything works in the browser, it’s not a fact that it will work in the phone. We need to make sure that the disk created by us can be mounted by the guest system. Therefore, we simulate it on our own computer.
   

   @> net use * 127.0.0.1 : 8081 / * / USER: "username" Type the password for 127.0.0.1 : 8081 /: Drive X: is now connected to 127.0.0.1 : 8081 /. The command completed successfully.

   
   
10. If the mount has passed, then, the bark of everything, it will pass to Symbian. On the phone, go to Menu -> Tools -> Connection-> Delete.disks, click Options-> Create New Disk. Enter the name of the drive, the IP address of the company, login / password, Back
    Options-> Connect. If arrows appeared to the right of the disk and nobody cursed about anything - hurray, everything turned out well. The disk can now be climbed, for example, with the standard File Manager, which means it can also be used for high purposes, such as wireless backup or file transfer. Good luck!
