Howdy,
 
I'm working on integrating slide within an existing application.  I'm using the 
same context for the application and with slide.  I'm having troubles mapping a 
drive under XP *and* OS X.
 
Some background: 
 
My context path is "/app".  In production we have both Apache and Tomcat on 
separate servers.  Apache is serving up static files from /images, /js, /css, 
etc.  Apache has a mapped JkMount of /app/*.  My URL to access the webdav share 
is: http://domain/app/webdav.  I can browse the webdav filesystem through a 
browser without a problem.  When I map a drive in XP, it returns with the 
message: "The folder you entered does not appear to be valid..."  OS X returns 
something along the same lines.
 
I read through several discussions on the mailing list.  One of those is the 
discussion found when searching for "Windows XP Mapping."  It was stated that 
the root dir needs to be webdav enabled for drive mapping.  I won't state my 
thoughts on how frustrating I think that is.  :)  
 
How do you get around it if you can't have the application context mapped to 
the root?  Is there anyone else out there that has gone through this situation?
 
TIA!
 
-Mike
