Doug,

Your question never made it to [Web400]. Are you signed up?

Do you know how to configure Apache basic authentication? Instructions are in the manuals.

There are various references on the Internet suggesting the following format to pass credentials to Apache for basic authentication:

https://username:password@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/path

While encrypted on the wire, some suggest that the credentials are recorded in Apache logs as clear text, which would probably be considered a security breach.
