Subject: Authentication!

Hi, i have a doubt about slide configuration files. I read that you need to make changes to web.xml and
domain.xml to get slide to give authentication. But when i read this files, i just make a change: uncoment
the comented part on web.xml. I only make this change because i'm not sure of what changes do i have to
make in domain.html to get authentication on (it is still working like default conf, letting me read but no write,
without asking for password), and how do i define users/permissions. ????
Other question is how are users authenticated? can you add new users in runtime?
 
The users are authenticated against the realm you have configured in the servlet container.
 
You can add users at runtime, but not assign roles yet :( That will require adding a proprietary HTTP method (since WebDAV ACL doesn't deal with principal management). That's something I'd like to add ASAP.
