in thread Perl Cgi Login Question

Hello, I was able to get data from using
use LWP::UserAgent; $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => 'http://www.linpro.no/secret/'); $req->authorization_basic('aas', 'mypassword'); print $ua->request($req)->as_string;
however, how do you access the orignal site that I want go to instead of me retrival data from the site?
