Hi

I'm trying to get Slide working in an NT domain.  I'm running Apache 2.0 in
front of Tomcat 5.0.25.  Apache authenticates users using NTLM (with
mod_auth_sspi).  Tomcat is instructed to trust the authentication performed
by Apache.

The whole arrangement works fine, except for the pesky slash between the
domain and username (DOMAIN/user).  Slashes are illegal in file names on
windows system, so this creates a problem with usernames in Slide.

The approach seems simple - replace the slash with an innocuous character,
say $, so we have DOMAIN$user. However, after trawling Apache and Tomcat for
solutions to this apparently simple hack, it appears that the implementation
is more involved - most probably requiring a Tomcat valve.

Before I begin developing, I wondered if anyone else had the same problem,
and possible a solution.

TIA
