In geoserver, I have one workspace (among others) which shall not be public. Its uses is only for internal colleagues who do not know much about geoserver and web-services; My goal would be to provide them a WMS link to the specific workspace they can add as a service in the Geonetwork map viewer. I tried: MYSERVER.be/geoserver/MYWORKSPACE/wms?service=WMS&version=1.1.0&username=myusername&password=mypassword It seems there are at least two problems. The WMS getcapabilities does not seems to accept limitation to a specific workspace and the user/password is not recognized. I understand the security of such method is quite limited (password written in clear) but given my context it is acceptable. Does anyone knows if this is possible to do and how to do it?
