Hi Chris,

GeoServer has a rich security module. Briefly, users can be authenticated and authorized to have access to specific workspaces and data layers with varied read/write/admin options. Additionally, a user can be configured to administer GeoServer. With those options, you can restrict what users would see in the web UI.

http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/security/index.html

As a note, if you've got all your configuration set and don't require the admin UI, you can disable it via these options: http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/production/config.html#disable-the-geoserver-web-administration-interface. I *think* this leaves the REST API available, so it doesn't remove the need for proper security configuration.

Cheers,

Jim

Hi

I am wondering if there is a way to either disable or limit the amount of information displayed when external users are accessing my Geoserver web interface?

They currently are able to view my layers and other settings; I noticed that on some other public geoserver web areas the options on the left hand side have been removed, how am I able to do this?

Thanks
