Hey Andy,

Thanks for the response and the code. I am curious, what reason did you build the authentication outside of Slide?

I am new to Slide (and Webdav) so please bear with me :)

Thanks,
Michael

I submitted code a few weeks ago to accomplish something very similar. You will still have to write a few simple methods (by implementing a DAO style interface) to retrieve your users from MySQL, but my contribution takes care of mapping your user info to the principal store format that Slide expects. My code also assumes that you are not relying on Slide to authenticate, but have already authenticated the current user before entering Slide. My "principal store" implementation does not expose passwords to Slide, only user information, roles, etc. Take a look at http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33639 for my contribution. I also include code to integrate Acegi authentication (which is what we use) with Slide's WebDAV servlet - and to facilitate some IoC style configuration (in my case, Spring).

Hello.

I am trying to set up a webdav server that hits a MySQL database to get
the authentication information.  I also want to direct the user to their
"home" directory structure after they log in.

Is this possible and, if so, does anyone out there have any experience
with it?

Thanks,
Michael
