in reply to Basic authentication with LWP::UserAgent

The trick to LWP authentication is subclassing LWP::UserAgent.

package MyAgent; use base 'LWP::UserAgent'; sub get_basic_credentials { return 'admin', 'password'; } package main; my $agent = MyAgent->new; my $response = $agent->get( 'http://192.168.0.1/st_devic.html' ); print $response->code;
