[thredds] Direct file download problem

Hi all,

I've configured a service with the following services:

  <service name="all" base="" serviceType="compound">
    <service name="odap" serviceType="OpenDAP" base="/thredds/dodsC/" />
    <service name="wcs" serviceType="WCS" base="/thredds/wcs/" />
    <service name="wms" serviceType="WMS" base="/thredds/wms/" />
<service name="ncss" serviceType="NetcdfSubset" base="/thredds/ncss/" />
  </service>

And configured in a datasetScan:

<datasetScan name="Test all files in a directory" ID="testDatasetScan"
               path="testAll" location="content/testdata">

    <metadata inherited="true">
      <serviceName>all</serviceName>
      <dataType>Grid</dataType>
    </metadata>

    <filter>
    </filter>

  </datasetScan>

I then browse to the appropriate directory in my browser and find the following links:

   1. OPENDAP: /thredds/dodsC/testAll/2004050412_eta_211.nc
   2. WCS: /thredds/wcs/testAll/2004050412_eta_211.nc
   3. WMS: /thredds/wms/testAll/2004050412_eta_211.nc
   4. NetcdfSubset: /thredds/ncss/testAll/2004050412_eta_211.nc


This looks fine... however, I can also handcraft a fileServer URL like so:

http://localhost:8080/thredds/fileServ er/testAll/2004050412_eta_211.nc

And download the file. Is that the correct behaviour? I would think that since the dataset hasn't been configured to use fileServer, then the above link should not work...

I'm using 4.2.20100707.0012, but also got a similar result using (a really old version!) TDS 4.0.36 too.

Cheers,

-Pauline.
