Thanks for you timely response. By authenticate i mean to login with a username and password variable pair, hopefully. Isaac Close

    LWP, LWP::Simple and WWW::Mechanize all support logins via the URI or via authentication methods (ie, $ua->credentials($user, $pass)). So, you should be all set without having to read a lick of the SSL docs. Mech has revolutionized the way I write these automated processes. I highly recommend starting there.

      Thanks all, JOY, JOY, JOY, JOY, JOY !!! I'm looking at WWW::Mechanize and have already built a prototype that works. Maybe a good time to go buy some beer to put in the fridge for later :D
