I feel like a broken record here ;-)
You need to :
- configure authentication in the web application
- add the appropriate users in the Tomcat realm, matching the users in the
Slide namespace
- then edit the ACLs (right now, there's only the manager servlet - and the
interface is terrible - but soon you'll be able to do that through the
WebDAV client using DAV ACL)

The store should run reasonably well with Oracle and mySQL, but you'll have
to create the tables yourself (the types supported by each database can vary
a lot).
Note : If someone could contribute SQL scripts for the database creation on
DBs other than hSQL, I would appreciate it. Thanks !
