Hi Pauline,
We are using authentication with CAS (Central Authentication Service
from Yale University, it is a web single sign on system) with TDS 3.16.
It works well thanks to some developments made by John.
The documentation is there :
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/reference/PluggableRestrictedAccess.html
Unfortunatly, client library need some customization to manage the CAS
authentication (need to get a ticket from the authentication server by
sending the username/password to it.

Hi all,
Is there any documentation on OPeNDAP/G, or THREDDS with X509
documentation? We're interested in using authentication (and
naturally, authorisation) for some of our datasets. I would like to
see if I can do a test setup over here, but I can't seem to find any
documentation on doing this... Interestingly, does OPeNDAP client
libraries already support this?
Thanks!
-Pauline.
For TDS, you can use standard Tomcat authentication, see
authentication section of this:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/tds4.0/reference/index.html
Im guessing same for Hyrax. OPeNDAP client libraries should support
this, as its based on standard HTTP mechanism.
