The default security setting for layers is admin-only. In order to change the settings for a layer you have to get it into the geonode database. Then you can visit the GeoNode's page for the layer to change the security settings for it. Getting it into geonode is pretty easy - there's a script that does it for you: django-admin.py updatelayers --settings=geonode.settings > The other question is: which is the difference between the geoserver_admin > and the django admin?

What are you trying to do? What happened instead?
