[GeoNode-devel] Improvements in authentication [PR#30]

[Emanuele Tajariol]

Hi list,

a couple of months ago there has been a bit of discussion on this pull request
   https://github.com/GeoNode/geoserver-geonode-ext/pull/30
which is still open.

I opened the issues related to the two different topics included in the 
pullreq, so that they can be addressed separately:

- HTTPClient auth issue in multiple threads   
  https://github.com/GeoNode/geoserver-geonode-ext/issues/32
  Which is the main issue related to a bug. In the comments the participants 
  agreed on the fix.

- AuthCache: make the timeout configurable
  https://github.com/GeoNode/geoserver-geonode-ext/issues/33
  Which is not related to a bug, but an improvement implemented and discussed 
  in the PR.
  There were different ideas about the cache timeout value to be used, so 
  making this value configurable is the best way to go.

I will provide two different PRs related to the two topics.

   Cheers,
   Emanuele
