Hi Mario,

Jaas would be nice to have. Webdav can only use digest or basic authentication. 
Having a 'real'  user makes is easier to set-up access rights, The problem you 
have is not a Jackrabbit problem but a MS issue. 

Unless you use sharepoint, the office stack by definition does not allow you to 
open files in read/write mode on a webdav server. You need to adjust the 
registry settings for that.  The fix depends on the office version you use. 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
