Is there anyway to do all these changes in the web.xml and/or roles.xml file up
front prior to installation so it can be ready to go from install time????
Thanks,
Melody

Subject: EXT :Re: [Geoserver-users] Disabling Geoserver Security in 2.3.4?
Hi Melody
First, this hat nothing to do with disabling GeoServer security. You have to
create a J2EE authentication filter. (Can be done on the "Authentication" page).
A J2EE authentication filter requires a role service. Two possibilities here:
- If you have defined your roles in the web.xml file, create a new J2EE role
service ("User, Groups,Roles" page).
- If you want to use the default role serice, you have to add the J2EE roles
individually (not recommended).
For each filter chain ("Authentication" page") do the following.
Remove the current authentication filters and add your new J2EE authentication
filter.
Hint: Make a backup of your GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR/security directory- This helps
restoring your original security configuration.
Cheers

I am trying to use weblogic's authentication via basic form authentication, but
I still cannot disable the geoserver security login. What all do I need to
comment out in the web.xml to make this happen? Also, how can I still have a
geoserver privileged user to access/update the configuration of geoserver?
I currently have it where the user is being prompted for a weblogic account and
proceeding with that account, but it does NOT log me in to geoserver. Then
when I type in root and the appropriate password, I get
https://FQDN:443/GeoServer/j_spring_security_check.
I am installing 2.3.4 which I thought is suppose to resolve the disabling
geoserver security issue.
Thanks,
Melody
