Metacat

   remains is to configure geoserver and restart the metacat servlet for the changes to take effect.

<p class="section">Configuring Geoserver</p>

<p>Metacat ships with <a href="http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/Home">Geoserver</a> to handle the spatial functionality.

   Regardless of whether you plan on using the spatial functionality you should,

   for security purposes, configure geoserver initially so that it doesn't use

   the default password.

   To configure geoserver with a new admin password:

   <ol>

    <li> Point your browser to 

     <a href="<%= request.getScheme() + "://" +

       request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

              request.getContextPath() %>/geoserver.jsp"><%= request.getScheme() + "://" +

	                      request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

			                      request.getContextPath() %>/geoserver.jsp</a>. </li>

     <li> Login using the default username and password ( <em>admin</em> / <em>geoserver</em> ) </li>

    <li> Point your browser to 

     <a href="<%= request.getScheme() + "://" +

       request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

              request.getContextPath() %>/config/loginEdit.do"><%= request.getScheme() + "://" +

	                      request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

			                      request.getContextPath() %>/config/loginEdit.do</a>, enter a new user and password then submit. </li>

     <li> In the upper-left, click <em>Apply</em> then <em>Save</em> to save your new password.

    </ol>

</p>
