Re^2: LWP and Digest Authentication

What exactly do you think those links are meant to tell me?

The grep references digest, but tells me nothing I do not already know.
The second is a test script testing authentication...
But, as I pointed out above, it hardcodes the realm rather than deriving it from the 401 header.
No help there then.
The third is a test script checking an MD5 content header?

I don't know who you are (though I could probably take a good guess), but quite what you thought the point of your contribution was, I cannot fathom from your terse response.

Perhaps that's why your post was so terse; you didn't know what you were trying to say?

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

"Too many [] have been sedated by an oppressive environment of political correctness and risk aversion."

They were suggestions for you to look at, sorry. I don't see where it hardcodes the realm. I get `1..2 test:http://jigsaw.w3.org/HTTP/Digest/: => foo/bar test:http://jigsaw.w3.org/HTTP/Digest/: => / test:http://jigsaw.w3.org/HTTP/Digest/: => guest/ test:http://jigsaw.w3.org/HTTP/Digest/: => guest/guest ok 1 ok 2` [download] test doesn't appear anywhere in the code and the docs for get_basic_credentials say The arguments passed in is the $realm provided by the server, the $uri requested and a boolean flag to indicate if this is authentication against a proxy server. so isn't this what you want?
