Hi I am running Geoserver version 2.5 and have an Openlayers 3 web map application which accesses some WMS and WFS services from the Geoserver instance.
At the moment I haven't configured any authentication so it is running the default settings. What I would like is to allow this to continue so my Openlayers application has full access to all of the layers on Geoserver, but for anyone accessing my WMS / WFS (i.e through QGIS), I would like to include a username / password or restrict the layers visible through these services. I have had a quick look the manual trying to understand how this works but cannot seem to grasp it - I know there are authentication settings within the web interface, but would these not be for the whole of Geoserver? How am I able to allow access to my Openlayers application, but also restrict access to the WFS / WMS services for desktop users wanting to view my services? Thanks, Chris
