You would have to write a custom access manager for that -- the
SimpleAccessManger
provided doesn't do any "real" access control. Look at
http://wiki.apache.org/jackrabbit/SimpleJbossAccessManager
for an example.
I can't give you much advice on mapping virtual hosts to workspaces
as this depends
heavily on your server setup -- you could probably just use Apache's
mod_rewrite to
get things running quickly.

Hi,
So, how do you restrict the webdav client to access only to his
workspace
(given this is guessed from it's credentials on authentication time)?

Hi Manolo,
that's more or less the same thing we're trying to do.
I'd recommend using one workspace per user, so you won't have
to deal with moving dropped files around. You could also register
an EventListener on the "inbox" that moves files to another
workspace once uploaded by the user (that's what I'm doing, but
all my users will share a common "inbox").
Try replacing "server" with "repository" in your connection URL to
have the repository mount as a "regular" WebDAV resource (assuming
you're using the default Jackrabbit webapp).

Kim
