Thanks Justin, Indeed I want the jackrabbit webapp to provide webdav access, and my webapp for the fornt end.
In my webapp I don't include any jackrabbit libraries. I only needed to drop jcr2.0.jar in the common lib tomcat folder and later on I had to drop the jackrabbit-api-2.0.jar to be able to access the interface JackrabbitSession. Is what I'm doing make any sense? or should I go with another approach? In fact I saw that accessing the repository throw the jackrabbit webapp context documented on jackrabbit website as one way to have local access to the repository. thanks for any feedback in advanced.
