Hi folks,

we've got a JDBCRealm configured in tomcat, that handles the security for the webapplications - we now have installed slide and want to reuse this realm: My first naive approach was to just uncomment the constraints in slide/WEB-INF/web.xml and add the roles we want to allow access to slide - however, this does not work. When we access slide using a browser we get a simple HTTP Status 403(Access to the specified resource () has been forbidden.), when we access it using the DAVExplorer (http://www.ics.uci.edu/~webdav/), we get a "Access denied on / by User *** Could not determine principal for action /actions/read"

This is the realm we defined inside web.xml that we want to authenticate against:

<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.JDBCRealm" debug="99"
driverName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
connectionURL="jdbc:oracle:thin:@******:1521:***"
connectionName="***" connectionPassword="***"
userTable="users" userNameCol="user_name" userCredCol="user_password"
userRoleTable="user_roles" roleNameCol="role_name" />


I checked the username/password thrice, we can log into the other webapps on the same tomcat withouit any problems: Does slide do something else than just have the user authenticate against the realm???!

any help appreciated!!
cheers
stf
