Hi, I'm a new user of Slide, and I'm interested on the WebDAV capacities that it has (btw it's a great project ). I'll try to explain briefly what I'm developing. It is a module for a bigger system. The main functionality of the module is the assignment and control of projects. This control is possible through the use of a database (Postgres), EJB (Bussiness logic) and WebDAV (Slide). The db is used to save information about the users (names, titles, usernames, passwords, etc), the projects (the day it has to start and finish, the code name, etc) and the relationship between the users and the projects (one user can create many projects, one project has only one creator; one user is in charge of many projects, one project has only one boss). Each time a user creates and assigns a project to another user, a new collection must be created with the codename of the project and also a file named project.mpp (MS Project file) must be created inside the collection, for example if a user1 create the project with codename ALPHA and assigns it to user2, this data must be save to the db and the following must be the result on the WebDAV server. http://localhost:8080/slide/files/ |---ALPHA/ |---project.mpp Also the Access Control List must be modified so only user1 and user2 can have read/write access to the collection and the file. This is the part that I am not quiet clear. I have very little knowledge on how to give authorizations to certain resources on a WebDAV server using the webdavcliente jca connector (I'm using EJB to handle this transaction) that you developed, can you give me an example code of how to use it for accesing control?. I also have a question on accessing, I've read that accessing can be configured to use a database (using <Realm> tag), but I don't have a "role" table, because my applications doesn't use roles. It is necessary that my users have an specific role to have access to my WebDAV server (I know that this is kinda Tomcat configuration question but I'm hoping that someone can help, I've used Tomcat several times but never had configured access to a webapp through a database server) I hope anyone can share their expertise on this questions. The webdavcliente API is quiet intuitive and I don't think I will have problems using. Thanks for in advanced and thanks for developing such a great application.
