Hello, I'm doing a small website survey as a consultant for a company that has a large private lan. Basically, I'm trying to determine how many web sites there are on their network and what content the sites contain (scary how they don't know this, but I suspect many companies are this way).
Everything is going fine so far except for sites that require passwds to be accessed. I don't want to view content on these sites, I only want to note that they are passwd protected, make a list of them and move on. The problem is that urllib hangs waiting for a username/passwd to be entered. Is there a graceful way to deal with this? Many thanks, Bob -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
