David, Thank you for your answer. I will try to explain a little bit more my problems. Maybe you will find (I hope so) a solution. For one of our project I need to secure my WMS. So I create a rule where only the person with a login and a password can get the tiles. But for one of our partners I need to let the WMS open with no restriction. Indeed the software they have can't use restricted WMS. So do you think that I can manage this particular case with the geoserver security system ? Another solution could be to specify the login and the password inside the WMS request. Is it possible to do that with GeoServer ? Thank for your help.
