[las_users] LAS 8.0: securing "save as..." by password

[emanuele lombardi <emanuele.lombardi@xxxxxxx>]

Hi to everybody!

I'm very happy with new LAS 8.0 which now is my default LAS.

I'd like to know how to put "Save As..." option under the control of a 
password. This is necessary since we allow everybody to see our data, but we 
wish to give data only to registerd users.

With LAS 7.3 I bypassed the problem removing the "Save As..." by editing 
productserver/templates/V7UI.vm, (but in 8.0 I didn't find a similar file to 
edit). 

In any case it would better to leave the "Save As..." and activate an access 
control over the data to be saved, but I don't know how to achieve this. 


I tried acting at TDS level adding the following lines to thredds' web.xml

  <security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
      <web-resource-name>restricted access datasets</web-resource-name>
      <url-pattern>/dodsC/las_tirreno/*</url-pattern>
      <http-method>GET</http-method>
    </web-resource-collection>
    <auth-constraint>
      <role-name>accediTIRRENO</role-name>
    </auth-constraint>
    <!-- user-data-constraint>
      <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
    </user-data-constraint -->
  </security-constraint>


and the following lines to catalog.xml

<datasetScan name="Data From LAS Tirreno" path="las_tirreno" 
location="/usr/local/tomcat7/content/las_tirreno/conf/server/data" 
serviceName=
"all">
      <filter>
         <include wildcard="*.nc"/>
         <include wildcard="*.fds"/>
         <include wildcard="*.jnl"/>
      </filter>
   </datasetScan>


It appens that accessing data via thredds is secured by password but LAS 8 
"Save as..." option still doesn't ask for any password.


I'll be glad for any help,

Ciao from Italy,
