If I wanted to write a python script that performs basic auth, gets a cookie, and then does an http POST using the cookie for authentication, what would be the best python API to write to? Does someone already have example code that does something like this? Thanks.

Hi, I am currently having a problem where I require a client to cache a response (web form), using cache-control: public, but ASP.NET is always writing in a cache-control: private header. I believe this is because I am using Basic Auth, however I still require the cache-control: public header, and even if I do set it manually, ASP.NET writes a private header afterwards (which is the one that is used). Is there any configuration etc, or...

The MS fix for IE broke how users access our site (if they patch their browsers), so I need a solution to get users logged onto our site transparently. Basically we used to log on to the site by: http://username:pwd@www.mysite.com/main/ which uses basic auth, but now that doesn't work. I would like to find a way where I can still use basic auth and tell the people hitting our site to modify their url to:...

I'm cross posting from mscom.webservices.general as I have received no answer there: There has been a number of recent posts requesting how to satisfactorily enable BASIC authorization at the HTTP level but as yet no fully useful answer. I too have been trying to call an apache/axis webservice which desires a username/password from my C# Client. (ie the equivalent of _call.setUsername("Myname") name from within a Java client proxy)...

I see from googling around that this is a popular topic, but I haven't seen anyone saying "ah, yes, that works", so here it goes. How does one connect through a proxy which requires basic authorisation? The following code, stolen from somewhere, fails with a 407: proxy_handler = urllib2.ProxyHandler({"http" : "http://the.proxy.address:3128"}) proxy_auth_handler = urllib2.ProxyBasicAuthHandler() proxy_auth_handler.add_password("The...

Hello, I'm having some problems with the authentication during a web service call I know I have to add the "Authorization: Basic xxxxxxxx" in the http header (not soap header) but I can't find a way to add it. I've tryed to use ethereal to watch what I'm sending and I can see all the header (Accept-Language,Accept-Encoding,User-Agent,Host,Connection,..) and the SOAP xml message but there is no "Authorization: Basic ......" at all.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
