Ok, I figured out part of the Item authorization and am working
through some related AccessManager issues. But the primary question
that I still have is how should I setup the workspaces given the below
setup.
Each client will need access to only one folder (or sub-folder in the
workspace depending on how we set it up. After working with the
AccessManager I'm leaning towards just giving each client their own
workspace to ease any access issues (like they don't have access to
the root workspace, but they do have access to a specific sub-folder).
Would love to hear others opinions before I go down this path though.

Hi all, I'm trying to figure out the best way to implement this.
First, I'll start with our layout. We have several people who will
be uploading files to a WebDAV client powered by Jackrabbit. So,
they each need their own secure "folder". There are two ways to look
at this:
1) Each "folder" is a workspace
2) Each "folder" is a sub-folder under one workspace
Option 1) doesn't look as good after reading this (http://wiki.apache.org/jackrabbit/DavidsModel
). This brings us to option 2). Under option 2) I'm trying to figure
out how to authorize someone for a specific folder under the main
workspace. Once I have the item id, I need to determine what kind of
Item it is and what it's real name is (i.e. the folder name). What
is the best way to do this? Does anyone have an example?
Thanks in advance!
