That's left to the application. If you are using the webdav servlet and tomcat, you can use whatever Tomcat realm is available. So you can use mySQL for authentication. However for fine grained autorisation Slide must know the user names and the groups, to which a user belongs (but not the password). You could write a store, which maps your mySQL table to slide nodes under /users. It's not that hard, but I don't know, if somebody already did this.
