Configuring Geoserver

Metacat ships with Geoserver 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:

  1. Go to Geoserver admin page .
  2. Login using the default username and password ( admin / geoserver )
  3. Then go to Password Change Page and enter a new user and password then submit.
  4. In the upper-left, click Apply then Save to save your new password.
