Re: LDAP Connection Error
Well - you mentioned exactly what I have been wondering about! Most companies split users and groups in several OUs (Organizational units). Can the JNDIStore search through the AD and fetch all users and groups, also how will that affect the performance? I have an AD with several OU ready for testing, but I have not had the time to look into this deeper yet! /jacob - Original Message - From: John Gilbert [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Slide Users Mailing List slide-user@jakarta.apache.org; Slide Users Mailing List slide-user@jakarta.apache.org Sent: Friday, February 25, 2005 4:14 PM Subject: RE: LDAP Connection Error There isn't much to say.

RE: LDAP Connection Error
Hello Jacob, The JNDIStore does not look for anything here. The configuration u give to her, tells her 'what is what, and where is it' ... Hmmm, with others words, the configuration tells the LDAP/Active Directory server what kind of objects she is looking for, and where she expects to be found. When you start configuring it, you will get more insightful regarding this statement. When the JNDIStore asks something to the server, it asks by means of a bind request, and the server shall have the responsibility to find objects, in the configured places, that match the bind request. 'Modus Operandis' of the LDAP or Active Directory is exactly the same regarding the bind operation, the difference comes in the schemas they offer: standard schemas with LDAP, proprietary but standard-based schema on Active Directory (M$ strikes again :P ). Also, as you correctly stated, most companies split users and groups in several OUs. I'm glad to report that the JNDIStore is generic enough to adapt it's configuration to any deployment choices (at least we did not found any trouble in its configuration until now). Hope this helps, Miguel Figueiredo -Original Message- From: Jacob Lund [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: segunda-feira, 28 de Fevereiro de 2005 8:46 To: Slide Users Mailing List Subject: Re: LDAP Connection Error Well - you mentioned exactly what I have been wondering about!

Using escaped URLs in 'new WebdavResource...' method
Has anyone had success using these ? The sequence seems to be: remoteObject = URLEncoder.encode(remoteObject, UTF-8); HttpURL slideSrv = new HttpURL(remoteObject, UTF-8); slideSrv.setEscapedUserinfo(user, pwd); WebdavResource wdr = new WebdavResource(slideSrv); But, I am getting a NullPointerException on the 'setEscapedUserinfo' call, where the javadoc seems to indicate that this means the 'user' was null ??? Is anyone else able to build WebdavResources using escaped urls ? Nick
HTTP client version?
Hi guys, What version of the HTTP client does Slide use in the 2.2 release -- which I gather is the current CVS HEAD? Thanks, Warwick
Files
I am a beginner to slide. Here's a really simple question: I copied a file into the files directory under slide (after having created a web folder in Win XP). Where is that file located? I deployed slide.war as is without changing any parameters. I looked through the documentation, but I'm still not quite clear where the windows mount is located.

changing a resource's owner
i find that i need to change a resource's owner after it has been created. i understand that owner is a protected property, but i don't have a choice; for project-specific reasons, i cannot create the resource as the user whom i want to own the resource. my first thought was to make this a special privilege i could assign to the root user. is this the route i should be going down, or is there a better way? i have spent an hour or so looking through the source, and it's still not obvious to me how i would go about making such a change. thanks! - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
