WebDAV access behind a proxy

[juapepa]

We want to upload WebDAV files using this .NET API. However, in order to connect to our WebDAV server, we are required to use a proxy (with authentication). Could this library work behind a proxy?

Thank you in advance

Hi @juapepa ,

There a few ways to set up a proxy when instantiating WebDavClient:

1. You can pass an WebProxy to WebDevClientParams.
2. You can pass a pre-configured instance of HttpClient to WebDavClient.

here is a code example:

var clientParams = new WebDavClientParams
{
    BaseAddress = new Uri("..."),
    UseProxy = true,
    Proxy = new WebProxy(...)
};
using var client = new WebDavClient(clientParams);

When using Socks5 proxy, WebProxy Class not work on .Net 4.x, 5.x ..

Can create proxy class for socks5 using like HttpToSocks5Proxy.1.4.0 in nuget pakages.

example,
HttpToSocks5Proxy httpToSocks5Proxy = new HttpToSocks5Proxy("127.0.0.1", xxxx);
proxy = httpToSocks5Proxy;

and, HttpToSocks5Proxy class is implement IWebProxy Class.

Useful under .Net 6 framework like unity platform.
