Login Info

Syntax: name and password

Specify a username and password for sites that require a login to view certain pages. These are used with HTTP Basic, Windows NTLM, and FTP authentication. Other authentication methods are not supported currently. Without proper login, protected pages will be skipped.

If this is a domain account, enter both in the Username field, separated by a forward slash (/), i.e. MY_DOMAIN/myuser.

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 allows search users to view ``protected'' pages without entering a password.
