[GeoNode-users] geoserver authentication in multi-geosites

Dear Eugenio,

  

since the master is not working and there is a plenty of documentation how a
plain geonode 2.4 should be configured even for the old authentication
mechanism I'd rather you did not claim help early for more complex features
like multi tenancy authentication as opposed to challenging yourself to solve
the easiest.

  

That said I'd encourage again to keep notes of everything that could be
helpful to improve our documentation for geosites and give back to the
community with pull requests.

Your project can be very useful in such a sense because what you are going to
achieve is not common so far and in case of a successful integration (I'm
quite sure of this) all the community can also further benefit.

  

Many thanks

Ciao

Francesco

configuration I cannot view any layer (i.e. in the info page I see the pink
tiles) if I'm not logged in geoserver as admin, and since the authentication
via geonode dosen't currently work fine that is a problem.

host in the gs config as well as I think it is ok that you cannot log in
directly into gs from a child site. That said, when geosites was developed,
the geoserver ext was modified to make sure that geoserver pings the same host
that made the http request for authentication instead of relying on the base
url parameter. So ideally it should work as you would expect.
