Hi all,

I run the 2.1 beta of Geoserver and was trying the virtual services. I've 
created a workspace and a PostGIS datastore, created some users, pushed some 
layers online.

I'm working with catalog security "cache" mode. I've added a new role for my 
user, and added a rule like mynamespace.*.r -> my_role. This should ensure that 
all layers of this workspace are only available read-only for my user with 
role: my_role..

Now I do a getCapabilites on a layer of this workspace without authentication 
(with Firefox):
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/mynamespace/wms?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS&version=1.1.1
---response (Only show the interesting part)----

<Capability>
...
...
<Layer>
   <Title>Geoserver Web Map Service</Title>
   <Abstract>etc...</Abstract>
   <SRS>etc...</SRS>
  <LatLonBoundingBox minx="0.0" miny="0.0" maxx="-1.0" maxy="-1.0"/>
</Layer>
</Capability>

The same URL with authentication (creds from new created user) return exactly 
the same response. Normally I should see the layer...

 When I do a get map, with or without authentication, I got a service 
exception: Layer not found.

Now, the Weird thing: Because I do these tests on Firefox, then I open a new 
tab, go login to Geoserver's config and when I make all the test above again, 
my layer appears in the getCap and the getMap returns an image of my layer, all 
is fine. The only thing I noticed with the previous tests is that now a 
JSESSION cookie was sent.

I was wondering why I could not see my layer on the getCap and cannot access it 
with a GetMap, even if I transmit an HTTP-BASIC authentication with those 
requests...
 
Regards,
Rémy
