Did you enable authentication in web.xml? Slide will not do any 
authentication on its own. The servlet container will do the
authentication and some coarse grained authorization. 
Slide will ask the the container for the username and do fine 
grained access controll.

No sure about that and no server at reach, which uses default configuration.
But IIRC auto-version-control is disabled by default. Have a look at the end
of Domain.xml. Probably you must put the resource under version control first.
