Angela,
that doesn't work for me. Here's the relevant section of my web.xml
<servlet>
<servlet-name>JCRWebdavServer</servlet-name>
<description>
The webdav servlet that connects HTTP request to the repository.
</description>
<servlet-class>org.apache.jackrabbit.j2ee.JCRWebdavServerServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>missing-auth-mapping</param-name>
<param-value>user:pass</param-value>
<description></description>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>authenticate-header</param-name>
<param-value>Basic realm="Jackrabbit Webdav Server"</param-value>
<description>
Defines the value of the 'WWW-Authenticate' header.
</description>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>resource-path-prefix</param-name>
<param-value>/server</param-value>
<description>
defines the prefix for spooling resources out of the repository.
</description>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>5</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
I did look at this before but I always get challenged.
