I am trying to setup a collection and it's child collection to have
different authentication. For achieving this, I edited the domain.xml
as below

<objectnode classname="org.apache.slide.structure.SubjectNode"
uri="/files/girish">
     <permission action="all" subject="/user/gn" inheritable="true"/>
     <permission action="/actions/write" subject="/user/john"
inheritable="true"/>
     <permission action="/actions/read-acl" subject="/user/john"
inheritable="true"/>
</objectnode>

Where "gn" was a user I defined in the domain.xml
<objectnode classname="org.apache.slide.structure.SubjectNode" uri="/users/gn">
   <revision>
      <property namespace="http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/";
name="password">gn</property>
   </revision>
</objectnode>

With this setup, I can't login with gn/gn nor does using john2/john2
prevents me from creating a subfolder under /files/girish.

Is it possible to setup authenication so that "writing" to certain
folders are allowed to only the specified users? If so, what am I
missing in the above example?

Also, is it possible to make the app. server to prompt the user when a
different user is required. For example: If the user has logged in as
'guest', can I somehow make tomcat/slide bring up the login dialog if
the user tries to create a folder under "/files/girish" ?

I have gone through the archive but did not find anything obvious
which I could try.

Thanks,
Girish
