You can add the password to the url e.g.
http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/file.txt or configure a user
authenticator as shown below:
FileSystemOptions opts = new FileSystemOptions();
HttpFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setProxyHost(opts,
"proxy.host.net");
HttpFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setProxyPort(opts, 8080);
DefaultFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setUserAuthenticator(opts,
you_user_authenticator);
FileObject fo =
VFS.getManager().resolveFile("http://target.host.net/file.txt";, opts);
I dont know if and how the user/pass stuff works with your proxy, please
tell us your experiences afterwards.
Ciao,
Mario
