Hello,

 

I’m trying to make a submission via LWP to a cgi executable. However, this executable requires authentication. The site on which it is hosted is set up for integrated windows authentication. Below is a portion of my script:

 

 

my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new(  );

$browser->credentials(
 
'myserver.mydomain.com:80',
 
'/cgi-bin/folder/cgi.exe',
 
'myusername' => 'mypassword'
);

my $url = "">
"http://myserver.mydomain.com/cgi-bin/folder/cgi.exe?$query";


my $response = $browser->post($url);

 

 

NB: $query represents the parameters that I want to submit after escaping with uri_escape.

 

When I run my script, I get a HTTP Error 401.3 – Unauthorized: Access is denied due to an ACL set on the requested resource.

 

Is Basic authentication the only authentication method supported?? Also, this work on a similar server without authentication setup.

 

Kind regards
