<br><font size=3>Thanks for all the valuable help!</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>If I place the .MAP file somewhere where only the system

<br>
<br><font size=3>Would there a possibility to juste use …map=my_map&…

<br>
<br><font size=3>For the Wrapper, I don't really understand how that one
would work. I have multiple .MAP files. And they need to by WMS-compliant.
If I understand correctly, the URL would call the script: </font><a href=http://my_url.org/my_script><font size=3 color=blue><u>http://my_url.org/my_script</u></font></a><font size=3>,
right? Hmmmm...</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>It says:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>#!/bin/sh</font>
<br><font size=3>MAPSERV="/path/to/my/mapserv"</font>
<br><font size=3>MS_MAPFILE="/path/to/my/mapfile.map" exec ${MAPSERV}</font>

<br><font size=3>Hi Stefan,<br>
<br>
you should hide your map file using a wrapper script on the server side.<br>
See </font><a href=http://mapserver.org/cgi/wrapper.html><font size=3 color=blue><u>http://mapserver.org/cgi/wrapper.html</u></font></a><font size=3><br>
You can find some other methods at </font><a href=http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html><font size=3 color=blue><u>http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html</u></font></a><font size=3><br>
look for "Changing the Online Resource URL"<br>

<br>
<br><font size=3>I am wondering how to deal with the CONNECTION information
in the .MAP which is used for WMS requests. As the .MAP file must be visible
and is readable, the CONNECTION information for my database is readable

<br><font size=3>Either I would then need to create a very simple user
for that case which really only can read the data, or I should hide the
file in a directory which is not readable by a webuser. But I guess that
Mapserver wouldn't like that.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>What are your recommendations?</font>
