Andrea,
     Does it mean that we cannot configure 2.1.4 version to work with 
certificates or just the fact that it is not documented?

Thanks
Ashok

Hi Ashok

The geoserver X.509 authentication is based on the spring security
X.509 authentication described here

http://static.springsource.org/spring-security/site/docs/3.0.x/reference/x509.html

You need a client certificate and a SSL setup. The user name is
extracted from the CN as described in the above link.

Is this what you want ?

A quick observation, what Christian is talking about is related to the 
GeoServer 2.2.x
series, not to GeoServer 2.1.4

Cheers
Andrea
