Hi,

I have an example whereby I have five datasets which are grouped into a single 
layergroup.

I want to share the layergroup with another user account but I don't want to 
share the five individual dataset on their own; or to put it another way, I 
don't want to list the subsets in the GetCapabilities statement.

It appears that you can't put the subsets in a separate workspaces as 
layergroups seem to need to be in a single workspace and this means that I 
can't see a way round.

If you assume that the layergroup could be in workspace x and the datasets were 
in workspace y then you would need to assign the user permissions to both 
workspaces under the security or I presume it would fail. However, if it was 
possible to do this you would still be able to provide the user with a 
workspace specific URL (i.e. https://server/x/wms) which would result in them 
only seeing the layergroup in the GetCapabilities statement.

Is there a way to share a layergroup without having to list all the subsets 
within it?

Thanks,
Paul
