Login Info
Syntax: name and password
Specify a username and password for sites that require logging in to view certain pages. These are used with standard HTTP style authentication. Other proprietary authentication methods are not supported. Without proper login info protected pages will be skipped.
If you are trying to walk a site where a login form is provided on a
web page you may be able to walk it by using the action URL from the
form with the form variables encoded onto the end as your base URL. For
example if the form variable names were Uname and Upass and the action
url was http://www.mysite.com/login.asp you may be able to use a url
like
http://www.mysite.com/login.asp?Uname=YOURNAME&Upass=YOURPASSWORD
Note: The search interface displays hit context and has an option to view the entire text of the page. This will allow search users to view ``protected'' pages without entering a password.
