I put my image files in <cognos install location>\webcontent\samples\images

I can then refer to them as ../samples/images/<imagename> in the url

Just check below link.

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/library/cognos/infrastructure/web_servers/page599.html

Just search for the word "WebDav" on the page. You should be able to enable the WebDav after going through this document.

Not saying you cannot find a way to make it work, but that is not a supported environment.

It means, at the time of IIS 5.1, images were not used in the report in industry. Then before iis 7, how they used to import images into the report.
