in reply to Active State question

I hate to say; It depends. Without code I can say "normally, yes it should work"

Posting your Code would be a good thing here as downloads are performed in different fashion. Are you using ftp? HTML?

Post some of your code and we may help you better.

    This is the conection part of the code: 
    require LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Request::Common;
use Digest::MD5;

$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$ua->credentials("url.com", "Datafeeds", $user, $password);

# URL where to download the database and its updates
$url      = "http://url/moreurl/$user/vuldb/";

 
sub check_files {
  stat("vdb-dump");
  die "No database dump found.\n" if !-d _;
}

    [download]
    I keep getting the error " cannot dowload: 401 Authorization Required"
