I think through the webdav servlet you can only access one namespace, ie.
the default one.

tomcat-users.xml tells Tomcat, who can access. In Domain.xml you tell Slide,
what resource a user can access.
Search the archive of last summer to find a message explaining
authentication and authorization.

See the part of Domain.xml where the operations are mapped to actions. There
you see what manage means.

Yes.

ACL method

Use DeltaV method VersionControl. See the DeltaV spec
www.webdav.org/deltav or http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3253.txt

Old versions are under /history/... Again, see the DeltaV spec for
explaination of VCR, VR, VHR...

Did you set resetBeforeStarting to false?

It's a windows problem. With Basic Authentication your credentials are
stored in Windows Explorer. Without booting Explorer doesn't ask you again. It's
the same with browsers. Fortunately you can have several processes of
IExplorer. Unfortunately not with Netscape, Mozilla, Opera. You need to reboot them.

The directory is created within the directory from where you start the
server. You can specify an absolute path in Domain.xml. But it's not portable
without editing.
