I have a servlet which is secured, and a program which needs to access that servlet.

When the servlet is secured using BASIC authentication, I can easily pass my 
credentials using the following code


  |         Authenticator.setDefault( new Authenticator()
  |         {
  |             protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication()
  |             {
  |                 return new PasswordAuthentication( login, pass.toCharArray() );
  |             }
  |         } );
  | 

However, I changed my servlet to FORM based authentication for a better user 
experience. Now my automatic authentication no longer works, and the client code gets 
the login page instead of the actual result.

Is there a way to send my credentials to the servlet to avoid trying to interpret the 
login page etc?

Thanks for the help,
Joachim
