McClain,

  It may be possible that the users defined in the
configurations were created the first time you started
the server.  Once they are created the objectnodes
representing the users will be found in one of the
stores you defined from Domain.xml (I believe it is
the  descriptor store).  I would check to see if they
are still there.  If so, do a clean install and remove
this possible phantom source.
  Secondly, without having the roles assigned to your
users match the roles defined in web.xml, I believe
you should continue to have authentication problems. 
Please check the servlet container's web.xml for the
following for each of the roles you are using (e.g.
root, guest, user).

<security-role>
    <description>
      An example role
    </description>
    <role-name>guest</role-name>
</security-role>

Finally, I am no expert on Slide, but IMHO these seem
to be the causes of your problems.

Hope this Helps,
__Julian
