slide questions ????
Hi, I am new to slide content management framework. Here is what i want for web based file manager i want for my application: I want a directory let say home containing all the users directory. let say there are user1 and user2. I want user1 and user2 can access a folder home/user1 and home/user2 through webdav. I am not sure how authentication is done in slide but I want security to be integrated with tomcat security. For example, i want tomcat to access user name and password from database ( i configured that for simple tomcat server). but i am not how to integrate tomcat security with slide content management framework.Slide bundle comes with enabled slide realm. I want to disable slide realm and enable tomcat realm. I am not clear from documentation, how to enable tomcat realm. Secondly, while playing with slide, one issue i had was that from Linux/Unix command if i create a file/ directory, corresponding meta data file is NOT created ( which is required for file to be visible through webdav client, specifically I am talking of configuring My network places in windows). In other words, shell touch hello # there is no metadata file is created for this file. when i go ( in windows) to My network places and see my configured network I am not able to see hello file ( reason - there is no metadata). This is my understanding of slide content management framework. is there any way I can prevent generation of metadata ? Your pointers will definitely help me to proceed in right direction. please help me. -john
slide questions
I have the following questions involving slide, now that I have made some progress... 1) by default, if I just use the .war file are there any stores created? If I just use the default domain.xml file? 2) If I try to use slide 2.1 binary, authentication pops up when I http://localhost:8080/slide and I tried to use root, root, or guest, guest and still are not able to log in. Has anyone else experienced this? (This test was done by simply putting the .war file in my Tomcat 5.0/webapp folder, and then re-starting Tomcat 5.0) 3) In my sample code I am able to create an WebdavResource and I am able to retrieve listing by calling list(). But when I try to use the putMethod(MyFile) it returns false. I have checked MyFile.exists() and it's true, but putMethod() is returning false, am I over looking something? Any hints or pointers would be appreciated. Thanks -- Jimmy - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: slide questions
1) Yes. 2,3) Slide only handles authorization itself (what a user is allowed to do once they are logged in). Authentication is handled by the App Server. In order to log in the Slide you need to tell the App Server how to authenticate users. This either means creating users in your App Server's user database (tomcat-users.xml by default for Tomcat) that match the users that Slide knows about, or configure Tomcat to use Slide's user database to authenticate users (the SlideRealm). -James [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/22/04 5:55 PM I have the following questions involving slide, now that I have made some progress... 1) by default, if I just use the .war file are there any stores created?

That depends on how you define metadata. You can associate properties (name/value pairs) with resources. Can I organize the content in categories? A WebDAV client is free to use properties to organize content. Is there any facility to look for contents? There's a spec for a WebDAV search protocol (DASL), but I don't think Slide supports it yet. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
