What I am trying to do is use Slide with the built-in authentication. As I already had a Tomcat (5.0.19), I only downloaded the .tar.gz bundle with the server and the commandline client. It works fine without authentication - except I can not access to the directories whose access is rectricted to root (users, roles, etc.).
At first I just uncommented the indicated lines in slide/WEB-INF/web.xml and added the roles and users to $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib. All I got was a beautiful 'HTTP 401' error, with my Mozilla browser, the WebDAV client in OpenOffice and the Slide command-line client.
So I did as it was written in the doc: I put the slide-catalinawrapper.jar into $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib and modified the default security realm in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml. At that point I just could not restart my server for it did not find some classes.
My question is, what is the RIGHT method to make Slide's authentication work ? And maybe this should be put clearly in the documentation, at least as an FAQ...
Regards

Hmmmm, while I am not quite sure what you intend to do the exception tells you it does not find class RealmBase which SlideRealm tries to inherit from upon loading. Please give more details.
