Andrea,

Thanks for the advice.  I will have to take a look at Geofence.  Do you know if 
there a tutorial for setting up or is the information just on GitHub & the 
Google Group?

Thank you as always for your advice.

Rob

All,

In hunting around this some more, I've found a thread from a year ago around 
this thing (Enabling only WMS on selected 
layers<http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Enabling-only-WMS-on-selected-layers-td5039631.html#a5039728>),
 quote below:

That unfortunately it's not possible using the build-in security subsystem of 
GeoServer, it requires a way to express a security rule that involves at the 
same time layer and service.

There are two security plugins that can do that, one is publicly available, 
GeoShield, but it hasn't reached the 1.0 release level and I haven't seen any 
news in a long while [...]. The other is called GeoFence (formerly 
GeoRepository) and has been offered so far as a bonus in GeoServer commercial 
support contracts...

Can anyone advise if this is still the case and if the options to achieve the 
below is only using something like 
GeoFence<https://github.com/geosolutions-it/geofence> or 
GeoShield<https://sites.google.com/site/geoshieldproject/home>?

It's still the case, for the internal security system.
Not sure what happened to GeoShield in the meantime, but GeoFence should be 
able to express that rule without problems

Cheers
Andrea
