Hello,
I have a problem Ive never encountered on forums before. Every topics deals with proxy for WFS service and getcapabilities request, but I would like to use a proxy for WMS service and getdata. I use OpenLayers to interrogate several WMS services. One of this service (private) is not hide behind a DNS and use the port 8080, so the address is http://ip:8080/cgi-bin//mapserv.exe. For most of the users, everything works fine. But for some users highly protected like government, they cant see the layers form this WMS service because their security doesnt allow such addresses. So I would like to use a proxy to hide WMS addresses to users. The proxy installed on my apache server is cURL. The best would be to use this proxy only for the WMS service that causes problems. All examples Ive seen on internet deal with WFS services and html/xml response. Would it be better to force the WMS service in question to hide his ip behind a DNS ? Is openlayer.proxyhost usefull for such case and how to use cURL instead of the proxy.cgi in OpenLayers examples which use is not allowed by my webmaster? Is it a case that require modifications in the code of the openlayer.js file ? Thanks a lot ! Guillaume Lefèvre Chargé de projet, Portail de l'eau COGESAF 5182, Boul.
