Hi Egil:
TDS release 4.0 will remove the circular redirect. We hope to have a stable release by this summer.
Thanks for reporting the problem.

Dear THREDDS developer community,
The implementation of restricted access to selected datasets in TDS is
relying on circular redirect which generates an error message when using
a Firefox web server as client. Although this obstacle is easily
overcome by just pushing a "Try again" button on the error message
window, not all users will do this, and it is anyway annoying to meet
this window.
This feature/bug is described in
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/reference/RestrictedAccess.html.
According to this document, there are no workaround *yet*. Are there any
plans to release a version of TDS where this issue is solved?
If we can expect such a release within a reasonable time, we can live
with the situation until then. Otherwise we have to find some solution
by other means, as we think many of our clients are using Firefox.
Best regards,
Egil Støren
