With Net::SSLeay perl module you would do this like this
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::SSLeay qw(get_https make_headers);
use MIME::Base64;
($user, $pass, $site, $port, $path) = @ARGV;
die "Usage: ./get_authenticated_page.pl user pass www.bacus.com 443 /\n"
unless $path;
($page, $result, %headers) =
get_https($site, $port, $path,
make_headers('Authorization' =>
'Basic ' . MIME::Base64::encode("$user:$pass"))
);
print "Result was `$result'\n";
foreach $h (sort keys %headers) {
print "Header `$h'\tvalue `$headers{$h}'\n";
}
print $page;
