Yes, you're right! Sorry I didn't notice that. However, the URL: https://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/... Only gives me a 401, so the authentication using this kind of URL does not seem to be supported. Tried with "file" protocol as you suggested, and that worked. Thank you for the help. Cheers, David
