I'm having trouble connecting to a WebDAV-enabled server from Ubuntu. I can connect to the WebDAV server from IE in Windows. Can also access the server via HTTPS in Firefox. I just can't get WebDAV or sshfs access from Ubuntu to work yet...

The WebDAV (IIS) server is running on a Windows host that requires an SSL connection. I'm running Hardy. First I tried the approach I thought would be easy -- using Nautilus -- but I couldn't get it to work.
Error:
Couldn't display "dav://myuser@theserver.com:443/".

Error: HTTP Error: Connection terminated unexpectedly
Please select another viewer and try again.

I also tried:
sshfs www.theserver.com: /media/mymount/
Response:
read: Connection reset by peer


My ultimate goal is to set up Foxmarks to point to the WebDAV server:

Any suggestions? Thanks.
