There are two possible causes for this error.

1. The VaultService virtual directory in IIS is not configured to accept anonymous connections. Vault handles its own authentication, so Windows authentication is not necessary.

2. There is some device (router, firewall, proxy, etc) between the client and server that doesn't speak HTTP 1.1 very well. Try setting the registry key described here: http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic ... successful

one quick clarification on 1.

for most people's needs, the caveat about running the virtual folder with anonymous access is correct.

however, we have had customers insist on running the vaultservice virtual folder with anonymous access off. while we usually do not recommend this configuration, it is possible with modifications to vault server's web.config. for more info, see http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=308#1252.

note, you should have a good understanding of asp.net's authorization scheme before making any changes. plus make sure you have backups for any file before modification.
