Hello,
We have also a Slide-based server running with a Portal.
We have developped an authentication layer (J2EE filters) so that the connected used does not need to re-authenticate (trusted connection).
When our portal connects to the server, it provides a "trusted password" and then our authentication layer just wraps the request (to put the user login in the request).
Our portal and Slide-based server use the same LDAP (we use a JNDI store for /users - but you could use a JDBC store), so our server "knows" the connected user.
You can find information about our server at :
http://www.esup-portail.org/consortium/espace/CMS_3F/PackagesInstallations/ServeurWebDAV_V3/installation.html
and nore details about the authentication layer at :
http://www.esup-portail.org/consortium/espace/CMS_3F/PackagesInstallations/ServeurWebDAV_V3/authenticationFilters.html
Hope it helps.

Hi,
We are developping a slide portlet( maybe it already exists, tell me if yes ).
In our portal, the user is already authentificated ( database or ldap ).
How can i use the externally authentificated user in slide ?
If the user home directory doesnot exist, will it be created automatically ?
If not, how can I create the home directory in Java for that user ?
Thanks.
