If you don't want to copy the behaviour of the PutMethod you could do the following: Upload the normal POST way. Then from within the servlet which handles the POST open a WebDAV connection to Slide. Just instanciate a WebdavResource and do a putMethod(). Doing this you don't need to re-invent the wheel of putting files into Slide. What you need are the user credentials: user name is easy to get, password can be read out of Slide using the Slide API. It becomes a little bit more tricky if you want to enable locking. I'd recommend to use the WebDAV-client API to write into Slide and the Slide API to read from Slide. In my thesis I used this mixed approach to implement the web- based (i.e. HTTP) interface for the WebDAV repository.
