Again, here is my noviceness coming out, but where would I find this wirelog of the HTTP session? I am running Apache Web Server 1.27 with WebLogic 5.1, sp 12, if that's useful.

You may leave the realm parameter null if you do not know what your authentication realm name is. Null realm basically means any realm. In very security caution applications you should probably avoid sending your credentials to any realm, but if you trust the target host, realm does not really matter too much, if you do not have to authenticate against multiple realms I am afraid I can't be of any further help, unless I get to see the wirelog on the HTTP session in question. Feel free to strip or obfuscate all the information you deem sensitive: host names, username, passwords, upload file content, etc. I am only interested in request/response headers Oleg On Fri, 2004-01-23 at 23:11, D Alvarado wrote: > I'm pretty sure the authentication is basic.
