Hi,

I have this in Geowebcache.xml

<!-- OPTIONAL A HTTP username to use for requests. Due to the design of the HTTP client included with
       Java this setting is global-->
  <httpUsername>username</httpUsername>
  <!-- OPTIONAL Password for the username above -->
  <httpPassword>password</httpPassword>
  
Because it is global you can have directly layers from just one remote secured WMS. For more remote servers you must use some proxy in between.

Hi thanks.This is very helpful for me.
Based on this,I have added username and password in geowebcache.xml.

*But I have confusion .

I have used 5 wms layers.
But I don't know, how do give authentication for each layer in
geowebcache.xml?
I want to create username and password for each external service layer.*

For Example:

        <httpUsername>tokr</httpUsername>
  <httpPassword>RgTT226</httpPassword>
  <layers>
    <wmsLayer>
    <name>kd:sverigekartan</name>
  
<wmsUrl><string>http://maps.lantmateriet.se/allmannakartor/wms/v1&lt;/string&gt;&lt;/wmsUrl&gt;
    </wmsLayer>
    <wmsLayer>
    <name>kd:topowebbkartan</name>
  
<wmsUrl><string>http://maps-eval.lantmateriet.se/topowebbfast/wms/v1&lt;/string&gt;&lt;/wmsUrl&gt;
    </wmsLayer>
    <wmsLayer>
    <name>kd:orto</name>
  
<wmsUrl><string>http://maps.lantmateriet.se/ortophoto/wms/v1&lt;/string&gt;&lt;/wmsUrl&gt;
    </wmsLayer>
    <wmsLayer>
    <name>gde:Gazetter</name>
  
<wmsUrl><string>http://localhost:8081/geoserver/wms?layers=gde:Gazetter&lt;/string&gt;
</wmsUrl>
    </wmsLayer>
    <wmsLayer>
    <name>0</name>
  
<wmsUrl><string>http://nvkarta.vic-metria.nu/ArcGIS/services/NVKarta/MapServer/WMSServer?&lt;/string&gt;&lt;/wmsUrl&gt;
    </wmsLayer>
  </layers>
