[Community] Proxies and WebxServices.

[Dominic Lowe]

Hi Mike,

The WebMapService can take a username and password as a keyword argument:

wms=WebMapService('http://mywms.com, version='1.1.1', 
username='me', password='mypassword')

I am not sure if this will work in your particular case or not...

This is pretty hard to test without being behind a similar proxy so I 
would be interested to know if does.

btw, we haven't extended this to the other services (eg WFS) yet, but it 
could be done fairly easily.

Thanks,
Dom
