webdav problem on IIS6

I am having trouble setting up webdav on IIS6. I want to allow 1 specific user only to access the server (via HTTPS and with basic authentication) and upload files

So far I have set it up to work over the internet with anonymous access.

Now I want to turn on:
1) basic authentication
2) SSL

I try to turn on (1) but:
- when try to access over the internet, it prompts for my login but it doesn't accept the login and keeps reprompting me.
- when I try to access from the local server, it seems to accept the login but gives an error 'the folder you entered does not appear to be valid, please choose another'

I have created a new user who has permission to access both the directory on the server and the virtual directory in IIS. I have turned on the webdav extension. I have tried reinstalling IIS too.
