Mapping of this directory is /wg/cgi/.
The URL http://server:port/wg/cgi/... requests login, under CSWS control.
However, a non-VMS program wants to access this script over the (internal) network, passing username and password in the URL-header, so the interactive login-sequence by CSWS is bypassed; still, MOD_AUTH_OPENVMS should still check the credentials with VMS. The script and accompanying software will do it's own checks, but only if the user is validated against VMS.
I'm told it should be possible with this setup, but I couldn't find how to specify username and password in the URL.
My question is how do I specify these credentials?
(I know http will send data without encryption, but for the moment, this is no issue (closed network). In the future, we'll use https for transport, but for clearity we would do without to start with)

SolutionThe right syntax for defining username and password in URL is:
http://username:password@hostname:port/
See specification at page 17 of the RFC.

An HTTP URL takes the form:

Anyway, since it works using FireFox, I can work with it :)
