It's not the user of my site who should be asked for the password. It's me the site owner who has the login credentials for the OGC server. I republish the map data on my site by using the google maps API. The authenticated login to the server is used to track how many accesses my site makes on the OGC server. The users of my site should not be aware that the access to the server is password authenticated.
