Hi list,
I managed to solve this. I modified the proxy.cgi so it passes the user/pass
token to geoserver. The token is encoded using base64 python library:
Add the following at the beginning of the file:
import base64
An then, more or less, at line 53, you will find the section were the request
headers are set. I've changed the following line:
headers = {"Content-Type": os.environ["CONTENT_TYPE"]}
For
base64string = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % (username, password))[:-1]
authheader = "Basic %s" % base64string
headers = {"Content-Type": os.environ["CONTENT_TYPE"],"Authorization":
authheader }
Basically, I have a username and a password, I encoded them using base64
algorithm, and finally I set the header. This approach is for having a fixed
username/password inside the proxy.cgi. In order to achieve this task in a more
general way, you could pass the authentication header to the proxy, and inside
the proxy get that header and pass it again to GeoServer.
Hope this can help.
Regards.

Asunto: [OpenLayers-Users] Editing against secured WFS-T
Hi list,
I'm trying to commit some changes to a secured (user & pass) wfs-t service. Is
there any propertie or something in which I can specify the user and pass for
http basic authentication?? The problem is that I can't figure out how to set
these variables to the savestrategy object.
Thanks.
Regards.
