I'm trying to access some secured wms services through basic authentication.
I figured the most secure way to do this was have a cgi script grab the
"remember me" authentication cookie through a local curl request. Then have
that returned to the user and entered as a cookie.

I've been unsuccessful at getting this to work. Can anyone see a problem
with this set-up?

What is the best (and proper) way to authenticate with Geoserver and then
access the protected layers. In particular through OpenLayers? It can't seem
to find any examples that work.

Thanks in advance.
