WebDAV quotas
Hi everyone ..
does anyone know how to enable quotas on WebDAV on OS X Server 10.4.11? It should also report the quota when connecting remotely.
Thanks in advance!

Anyone?

- Setting up WinDAV server on Windows 7 Pro / Ultimate
It has been a long painful road to discover this information.
I hope sharing it helps you.
Using EFS on Windows 7 pro / ultimate is easy and works great. See
here and
here
So too is opening + editing encrypted files over a peer-to-peer Windows 7 network.
HOWEVER, creating a new file / new folder over a peer-to-peer Windows 7 network
won't work (unless you follow below steps).
Typically, it is only discovered as an issue when a home user wants to use synchronisation software between their home computers which happens to have a few folders encrypted using windows EFS. I had this issue trying to use GoodSync.
Typically an "Access Denied" error messages is thrown when a \\clientpc tries to create new folder / new file in an encrypted folder on a remote file share \\fileserver.
Why such a EFS drama when a network is involved?
Assume a home peer-to-peer network with 2pc: \\fileserver and \\clientpc
When a \\clientpc tries to create a new file or new folder on a \\fileserver (remote computer) it fails. In a terribly simplified explanation it is because the process on \\fileserver that is answering the network requests is a process working for a user on
another machine (\\clientpc) and that \\fileserver process doesn't have access to an encryption certificate (as it isn't a user). Active Directory gets around this by using kerberos so the process can impersonate a \\fileserver user and then use their certificate
(on behalf of the clienpc's data request).
This behaviour is confusing, as a \\clientpc can open or edit an existing efs encrypted file or folder, just can't create a new file or folder. The reason editing + opening an encrypted file over a network file share is possible is because the encrypted
file / folder already has an encryption certificate, so it is clear which certificate is required to open/edit the file. Creating a new file/folder requires a certificate to be assigned and a process doesn't have a profile or certificates assigned.
Solutions
There are two main approaches to solve this:
1) SOLVE by setting up an Active Directory (efs files accessed through file shares)
EFS operations occur on the computer storing the files.
EFS files are decrypted then transmitted in plaintext to the client's computer
This makes use of kerberos to impersonate a local user (and use their certificate for encrypt + decrypt)
2) SOLVE by setting up WebDAV (efs files accessed through web folders)
EFS operations occur on the client's local computer
EFS files remain encrypted during transmission to the client's local computer where it is decrypted
This avoids active directory domains, roaming or remote user profiles and having to be trusted for delegation.
BUT it is a pain to set up, and most online WebDAV server setup sources are not for home peer-to-peer networks or contain details on how to setup WebDAV for EFS file provision
READ BELOW as this does
Create new encrypted file / folder on a network file share - via Active Directory
It is easily possible to sort this out on a domain based (corporate) active directory network. It is well documented. See
here. However, the problem is on a normal Windows 7 install (ie home peer-to-peer) to set up the server as part of an active directory domain is complicated, it is time consuming it is bulky, adds burden to operation of \\fileserver computer
and adds network complexity, and is generally a pain for a home user. Don't. Use a WebDAV.
Although this info is NOT for setting up EFS on an active directory domain [server],
for those interested here is the gist:
Use the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in to configure delegation options for both users and computers. To trust a computer for delegation, open the computer’s Properties sheet and select Trusted for delegation. To allow a user
account to be delegated, open the user’s Properties sheet. On the Account tab, under Account Options, clear the The account is sensitive and cannot be delegated check box. Do not select The account is trusted for delegation. This property is not used with
EFS.
NB: decrypted data is transmitted over the network in plaintext so reduce risk by enabling IP Security to use Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)—which will encrypt transmitted data,
Create new encrypted file / folder on a network file share - via WebDAV
For home users it is possible to make it all work.
Even better, the functionality is built into windows (pro + ultimate) so you don't need any external software and it doesn't cost anything. However, there are a few hotfixes you have to apply to make it work (see below).
Setting up a wifi AP (for those less technical):
a) START ... CMD
b) type (no quotes): "netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=MyPersonalWifi key=12345 keyUsage=persistent"

2 Click START and type "Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager"
3 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "WebDAV Authoring Rules", then click "Open Feature"
a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Enable WebDAV"
4 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "Authentication", then click "Open Feature"
a) on the "Anonymous Authentication" and click "Disable"
b) on the "Windows Authentication" and click "Enable"
NB: Some Win 7 will not connect to a webDAV user using Basic Authentication.
It can be by changing registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\WebClient\Parameters]
BasicAuthLevel=2
c) on the "Windows Authentication" click "Advanced Settings"
set Extended Protection to "Required"
NB: Extended protection enhances the windows authentication with 2 security mechanisms to reduce "man in the middle" attacks
5 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "Authorization Rules", then click "Open Feature"
a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Add Allow Rule"
b) set this to "all users". This will control who can view the "Default Site" through a web browser
NB: It is possible to specify a group (eg Administrators is popular) or a user account. However, if not set to "all users" this will require the specified group/user account to be used for logged in with on the
clientpc.
NB: Any user account specified here has to exist on the server. It has a bug in that it usernames specified here are not validated on input.

HOTFIX - double escaping
7 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "Request Filtering", then click "Open Feature"
a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Edit Feature Settings"
b) tick the box "Allow double escaping"
*THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT* if your filenames or foldernames contain characters like "+" or "&"
These folders will appears blank with no subdirectories, or these files will not be readable unless this is ticked
This is safe btw. Unchecked (default) it filters out requests that might possibly be misinterpreted by buggy code (eg double decode or build url's via string-concat without proper encoding). But any bug would need to be in IIS basic
file serving and this has been rigorously tested by microsoft, so very unlikely. Its safe to "Allow double escaping".
8 in IIS, on the left under "connections" right click "Default Web Site", then click "Add Virtual Directory"
a) set the Alias to something sensible eg "D_Drive", set the physical path
b) it is essential you click "connect as" and set
this to a local user (on fileserver),
if left as "pass through authentication" a client won't be able to create a new file or folder in an encrypted efs folder (on fileserver)
NB: the user account selected here must have the required EFS certificates installed.
See
here and
here
NB: Sharing the root of a drive as an active directory (eg D:\ as "D_Drive") often can't be opened on clientpcs.
This is due to windows setting all drive roots as hidden "administrative shares". Grrr.
The work around is on the \\fileserver create an NTFS symbollic link
e.g. to share the entire contents of "D:\",
on fileserver browse to site path (iis default this to c:\inetpub\wwwroot)
in cmd in this folder create an NTFS symbolic link to "D:\"
so in cmd type "cd c:\inetpub\wwwroot"
then in cmd type "mklink /D D_Drive D:\"
NB: WebDAV will open this using a \\fileserver local user account, so double check local NTFS permissions for the local account (clients will login using)
NB: If clientpc can see files but gets error on opening them, on clientpc click START, type "Manage Network Passwords", delete any "windows credentials" for the fileserver being used, restart
clientpc
9 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click on "WebDAV Authoring Rules", then click "Open Feature"
a) click "Add authoring rules". Control access to this folder by selecting "all users" or "specified groups" or "specified users", then control whether they can read/write/source
b) if some exist review existing allow or deny.
Take care to not only review the "allow access to" settings
but also review "permissions" (read/write/source)
NB: this can be set here for all added virtual directories, or can be set under each virtual directory
10 Open your firewall software and/or your router. Make an exception for port 80 and 443
a) In Windows Firewall with Advanced Security click Inbound Rules, click New Rule
choose Port, enter "80, 443" (no speech marks), follow through to completion. Repeat for outbound.
NB: take care over your choice to untick "Public", this can cause issues if no gateway is specified on the network (ie computer-to-computer with no router). See "Other problems+fixes"
below, specifically "Cant find server due to network location"
b) Repeat firewall exceptions on each client computer you expect to access the webDAV web folders on
HOTFIX - MAJOR ISSUE - fix KB959439
11 To fully understand this read "WebDAV HOTFIX: RAW DATA TRANSFERS" below
a) On Windows 7 you need only change one tiny registry value:
- click START, type "regedit", open link
-browse to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\MRxDAV\Parameters]
-on the EDIT menu click NEW, then click DWORD Value
-Type "DisableEFSOnWebDav" to name it (no speech marks)
-on the EDIT menu, click MODIFY, type 1, then click OK
-You MUST now restart this computer for the registry change to take effect.
b) On Windows Server 2008 / Vista / XP you'll FIRST need to
download Windows6.0-KB959439 here. Then do the above step.
NB microsoft will ask for your email. They don't care about licence key legality, it is more to keep you updated if they modify that hotfix
12 To test on local machine (eg \\fileserver) and deliberately bypass the firewall.
a) make sure WebClient Service is running
(click START, type "services" and open, scroll down to WebClient and check its status)
b) Open your internet software. Go to address "http://localhost:80" or "http://localhost:80"
It should show the default "IIS7" image.
If not, as firewall and port blocking are bypassed (using localhost) it must be a webDAV server setting. Check "Authorization Rules" are set to "Allow All Users"
c) for one of the "virtual directories" you added (8), add its "alias" onto "http://localhost/"
e.g. http://localhost/D_drive
If nothing is listed, check "Directory Browsing" is enabled
13 To test on local machine or a networked client and deliberately try and access through the firewall or port opening of your router.
a) make sure WebClient Service is running
(click START, type "services" and open, scroll down to WebClient and check its status)
b) open your internet software. Go to address "http://<computer>:80" or "http://<computer>:80".
eg if your server's computer name is "fileserver" go to "http://fileserver:80"
It should show the default "IIS7" image. If not, check firewall and port blocking.
Any issue ie if (12) works but (13) doesn't, will indicate a possible firewall issue or router port blocking issue.
c) for one of the "virtual directories" you added (8), add its "alias" onto "http://<computername>:80/"
eg if alias is "C_driver" and your server's computer name is "fileserver" go to "http://fileserver:80/C_drive"
A directory listing of files should appear.

c) click on "FileSizeLimitInBytes"
d) on the EDIT menu, click MODIFY, type "ffffffff", then click OK (no quotes)

16 On each clientpc click START, type "Internet Options" and open it
a) click on "Security" (top) and then "Custom level" (bottom)
b) scroll right to the bottom and under "User Authentication" select "Automatic logon with current username and password"
SUCH an easy fix. SUCH an annoying problem on a clientpc
NB: this is only an issue if the file is opened through windows explorer. If opened through the "open" dialogue of the software itself, it doesn't happen. This is as a WebDAV mapped drive is consdered a "web folder" by windows
explorer.
TEST SETUP
17 On the client use the normal "map network drive"
e.g. server= "http://fileserver:80/C_drive", tick reconnect at logon
e.g. CMD: net use * "http://fileserver:80/C_drive"
If it doens't work check "WebDAV Authoring Rules" and check NTFS permissions for these folders. Check that on the filserver the elected impersonation user that the client is logging in with (clientpc
"manage network passwords") has NTFS permissions.
18 Test that EFS is now working over the network
a) On a clientpc, map network drive to http://fileserver/
b) navigate to a folder you know on the \\flieserver is encrypted with EFS
c) create a new folder, create a new file.
IF it throws an error, check carefully you mapped to the WebDAV and not file share
i.e. mapped to "http://fileserver" not "\\fileserver"
Check that on clientpc the required efs certificate is installed. Then check carefully on clientpc what user account you specified during the map drive process. Then check on the \\fileserver this
account exists and has the required EFS certificate installed for use. If necessary, on clientpc click START, type "Manage Network Passwords" and delete the windows credentials currently in the vault.
d) on clientpc (through a webDAV mapped folder) open an encrypted file, edit it, save it, close it. On the \\fileserver now check that file is readable and not gobble-de-goup
e) on clientpc copy an encrypted efs file into a folder (a webDAV mapped folder) you know is not encrypted on \\fileserver. Now check on the \\fileserver computer that the file is readable and not gobble-de-goup (ie the
clientpc decrypted it then copied it).
If this fails, it is likely one in IIS setting on fileserver one of the shared virtual directories is set to: "pass through authentication" when it should be set to "connect as"
If this is not readable check step (11) and that you restarted the \\fileserver computer.
19 Test that clients don't get the VERY annoying prompt when opening an Office or PDF doc
a) on clientpc in windows explorer browse to a mapped folder you know is encrypted and open an office file and then PDF.
If a prompt for user+pass then check hotfix (16)
20 Consider setting up a recycling bin for this mapped drive, so files are sent to recycling bin not permanently deleted
a) see the last comment at the very bottom of
this page:
Points to consider:
- NB: WebDAV runs on \\fileserver under a local user account, so double check local NTFS permissions for that local account and adjust file permissions accordingly. If the local account doesn't have permission, the webDAV / web folder share won't
either.
- CONSIDER: IP Security (IPSec) or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to protect files during transport.
MORE INFO: HOTFIX: RAW DATA TRANSFERS
More info on step (11) above.
Because files remain encrypted during the file transfer and are decrypted by EFS locally, both uploads to and downloads from Web folders are raw data transfers. This is an advantage as if data is intercepted it is useless. This is a massive disadvantage as
it can cause unexpected results. IT MUST BE FIXED or you could be in deep deep water!
Consider using \\clientpc to access a webfolder on \\fileserver and copying an encrypted EFS file (over the network) to a web folder on \\fileserver that is not encrypted.
Doing this locally would automatically decrypt the file first then copy the decrypted file to the non-encrypted folder.
Doing this over the network to a web folder will copy the raw data, ie skip the decryption stage and result in the encrypted EFS file being raw copied to the non-encrypted folder. When viewed locally this file will not be recognised as encrypted (no encryption
file flag, not green in windows explorer) but it will be un-readable as its contents are still encrypted. It is now not possible to locally read this file. It can only be viewed on the \\clientpc
There is a fix:
It is implimented above, see (11) above
Microsoft's support page on this is excellent and short. Read "problem description" of "this microsoft webpage"
Other problems + fixes
PROBLEM: Can't find server due to network location.
This one took me a long time to track down to "network location".
Win 7 uses network locations "Home" / "Work" / "Public".
If no gateway is specified in the IP address, the network is set to '"unidentified" and so receives "Public" settings.
This is a disaster for remote file share access as typically "network discovery" and "file sharing" are disabled under "Public"
FIX = either set IP address manually and specify a gateway
FIX = or force "unidentified" network locations to assume "home" or "work" settings -
read here or
here
FIX = or change the "Public" "advanced network settings" to turn on "network discovery" and "file sharing" and "Password Protected Sharing". This is safe as it will require a windows
login to gain file access.
PROBLEM: Deleting files on network drive permanently deletes them, there is no recycling bin
By changing the location of "My Contacts" or similar to the root directory of your mapped drive, it will be added to recycling bin locations
Read
here (i've posted a batch script to automatically make the required reg files)
I really hope this helps people. I hope the keywords + long title give it the best chance of being picked up in web searches.What probably happens is that processes are using those mounts. And that those processes are not killed before the mounts are unmounted. Is there anything that uses those mounts?

WebDAV how to make root folders read only but contents writable
Hi everyone.. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out..
1 PERMISSIONS
I have a working WebDAV server. In each realm (or user account) they have a setup that mocks their home folder, ie, Documents, Movies, Websites, etc.
How can I modify the permissions so that these root folders cannot be deleted, but they can obviously have items added/deleted inside of them?
2 QUOTAS
Is there anyway to add quotas to WebDav accounts?
Thanks a lot!
-Melsorry guys..
Just figured out how to sort out the permissions.. You need to modify the WWW user the way you would normally set the standard user's permissions..
Any help on setting the quotas?
Thanks!

Uploading via Webdav Converts all \ to €
I'm using Dreamweaver MX 2004 with a WebDav connection to my
server. I connect on a port that will allows me to download and
upload my PHP source code without rendering it. On my PC, using the
same version, everything is fine, but when I try to work from my
Mac, all of my \ characters (for escaping quotes in PHP) get turned
into € symbols.
Has anyone else encountered this? I'm fairly certain it's a
Dreamweaver problem, as this has never happened on my PC.
Thanks!
-- Edit --
Sorry about the double post, I hit the button twice by
accident!O.k., it seems to be that my document encoding was set to
either Japanese (I started to gen Yen symbols recently) or
something else that gave the Euro sign. In comparing with my PC, I
see that I do not have Western(European) as an encoding type on the
Mac, which I'm guessing is why there is the confusion.
What I would like to address, though, is that all of this is
happening inside of PHP code. According to the techdocs I've read,
only special characters should have any type of encoding conversion
done on them, and in HTML. Why is it that Dreamweaver on the Mac is
changing my encoding, on upload, in PHP script blocks? -

I've having problems getting web authoring thru our CSS11503 running WebNS 7.x
I've come across this comment about ACNS
[Quote] In ACNS software, HTTP request methods are categorized as supported and unsupported. HTTP 1.1 request methods (for example, GET, HEAD, or POST) are supported by default. Nonstandard request methods, such as Web-Based Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) are not [End-Quote]
Is there a problem with WebNS passing my WebDAV traffic onto the servers? Can this be fixed? They are demanding the removal of the CSS if they cannot get their WebDav working.
Thanks.Thanks Gillies.
Can you suggest how I might do this? The CSS was unpacked and put into production within hours of arrival, without time to experiment or learn. I got it going by using someone elses configuration as a starting point. I dont know that much about the CSS features, and I cannot fiddle with it easily. I have a telephone conference in a few hours with the Project Manager, Application developers (from USA), and the Solaris Server Admin to work out what options we have.
The application is an online learning system (Vista/WebCT), using port 80 and eventually 443 (the CSS has the SSL module already). It also has a chat system on port 2304, and they want to be able to WebDAV to port 80 as well. I need to balance the traffic across the backend server nodes evenly, and be sticky so that a student remains connected to the same node for their session which may last several hours. Source IP stickiness sounds like a possibility. Can you provide me more details?
Thanks, Michael -
Quota Increase on StIN_PERF-TRF_ERM
Hi Beehive Support,
Could you please increase the quota on StIN_PERF-TRF_ERM to 2GB, as we've customers using this space actively and project moving into Construction phase will warrant an increased usage.
Regards,
Gautam[email protected] is in the STIN_PERF group and looks OK to me . Has he tried using a different browser ?
WebDAV access can smetimes throw up the username password box multiple times - I found adding a # at the end of the string helps, i.e. https://beehiveonline.oracle.com/content/dav/#

Lion Server 10.7.5 Mac Mini
After trying every "solution" I could find on the internet to get WebDAV working, I finally came across a post that fixed it...kind of.
http://www.macsupportguy.com/viewtopic.php?t=31574&p=137825
This post points out that the /etc/apache2/httpd_webdavsharing_sharepoints.conf file, which is autogenerated by the WebDAV process has a syntax error. This was confirmed in my system.log, which stated there was a syntax error on line 18.
There were " " missing around the RewriteRule entry. As soon as I added the quotes and saved the file I was able to use WebDAV from the connect to server option on my mac (https://mydomain.com/webdav). Awesome.
Here is my problem. As soon as the File Sharing service is turned off and on, it either rewrites the file or deletes my changes to the file and makes logging into the server with WebDAV fail at login again. It prompts me for credentials and then says there was a problem connecting to the server. rebooting the server keeps my changes, it just removes them when bouncing the File Sharing service.
I need to know how to make these changes stick or if the file is being recreated, how do I tell Apache2 to add the quotes?
I should mention that when WebDAV does work, only the network users can login and not the local admin accounts. After configuring and managing lion server I know for a fact that I will need to turn off the services now and then for other reasons, so having to edit this file all the time is not a very good solution.I have also ditched the file and allowed it to recreate and the same error is present. Forgot to mention this.

Using destype=WEBDAV from FORMS - run_report_object
Hi,
I'm trying to get WebDAV as output for my reports, invoked from forms. Read on if you might have a clue for my problem...
Downloaded the plugin for Oracle 9i Reports (9.0.2) to send the output to a WebDAV location.
This works fine when I tested it with a reports server and a browser URL to start the report like:
http://<machine:port>/reports/rwservlet?report=a.rdf&destype=WEBDAV&desformat=pdf&desname=<DAV URL>/myreport.pdf&userid=<unpw>
Output is created on the DAV location i expected.
This also works when invoking this URL from within forms with a web.show_document.
But I definitely want to get this functionality up and running using run_report_object and that is where I kick against the wall: to specify the destype, I only seem to be able to specify it using:
set_report_object_property(v_report_id,REPORT_DESTYPE,x);
where x stands for PRE-DEFINED keywords like CACHE, FILE etc. (without quotes)
Passing the value for destype using add_parameter(parlist_id, 'DESTYPE', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'WEBDAV'); doesn't work, FRM-41214 Unable to run report is displayed.
Anybody a clue?
Kind Regards,
Marc VahsenMarc,
this has been filed as a bug against Forms and will be fixed in Forms 10.0.3 (note that the upcoming Forms version is Forms 10g (9.0.4)).Not sure to this time if the fix can be provided earlier.

After reading the WebDav Interface documentation (dated 2002) a customer has a few questions based on these quotes:
"Similarly, Portal approval functionality is not supported on the WebDAV side."
Anyone know if and when this will be supported?
"Note that versioning is not supported on the WebDav side. If you activate Audit versioning in Portal, then edit and save a file via Web Folders, the modified file overwrites the original file, and the original version is not retained. If you want to save the original version of a modified file, do so before you make your edits, copying then renaming the copy, making sure the file to be modified retains the original name."
Is this statement true in the latest release ?'
Anybody know if and when this will be supported?
"Neither templates, regions, nor tabs are currently represented. Because tabs are not represented in Web Folders, their content is not represented. This means that if a file item is placed on a tab in Portal, that item will not display in a Web Folder."
Is this statement true in the latest release ?'
Anybody know the current status or when this will be supported?Please go to Portal Center and review the whitepaper 'New Features in OracleAS Portal 10g (9.0.4)'. In this document you will see that in 904 (and in the 9026 upgrade for that matter) versioning, approvals and publishing files to specific regions are now supported.
Tabs are a publishing construct (a way organizing content on a page) therefore not something that can be modeled very well in file system particularly when you consider that a page may have tabs and subpages. If this is important to you, I recommend following a best practice of separating the management of content from the publishing of the content by creating one or more pages (in a separate page group perhaps) where the content is loaded and managed and expose these as page portlets on 'end user facing' pages where the content is published (perhaps within tabs). -
Webdav folders - owers default tablespace ?
Hi,
I created home folders using xdb_utilities.createHomeFolder (). This works but the data that is in the folder still goes into the sysaux tablespace. What do I have to do to get the data into the default tablespace for the user ?
Can I limit a user to a certain quota ? (I can when the data is written in the users table[s])
For the time being I just want to be able to use the database as a filesystem. Later on I might try to access the stored files from sql.
There is an awfull lot to read, what are good pointers ?
thanks,
Ronald.Thanks for the reply Mark,
would a trigger be usefull to move the data to a user table and at the sametime create symbolic link - or whatever mechanism is possible - to keep the data accessible from webdav ?

Open and cancelled Quote Report
Hi,
Can anyone give me the information for getting open and cancelled Quote Report?I hope you are using reason for rejection for cancelling quotations. If that is the case, you can use transaction VA25 to view the list of quotations. Here you can filter on two columns status and reason for rejection to view the report as per your requirement.

Find open and close smart quotes
Dear scripter,
Here I am trying find whether all the open double smart quotes(") are closed with close double smart quotes("). Here is my small work to find how many open and close quotes.
myopenqu=app.activeDocument.search("^{", false, false, "^{");
myclosequ=app.activeDocument.search("^}", false, false, "^}");
myopenqulength = myopenqu.length;
myclosequlength = myclosequ.length;
if(myopenqulength!=myclosequlength)
alert("Quotes not matched\n"+ myopenqulength +" Open quotes found\n" + myclosequlength +" Close quotes found")
It works well, the script just alert if I have 25 open quotes and 23 close quotes
Quotes not matched
25 Open quotes found
23 close quotes found
Now I want to find the quote set where the 24,25th set close quotes are missing?
Is there any way to find the misisng quotes
Thanks in advance
regards

vpublish.netYou'd have to look for unmatched quotes, in this case two cases of two open quotes without an intervening closed quote. This is difficult to script in CS2 because it doesn't have GREP natively and because of footnote problems. In CS3/4 it should be possible. But even then it will work only if you don't have quotes within quotes.
