Dear All, I am exploring the use of the http-client egg ( http://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/5/http-client ) for communicating with a database server. For this I need some basic authentication, which I did not get to work. I tried including:
(determine-username/password (lambda (uri realm) (values "myuser" "mypass"))) (see http://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/5/http-client#authentication-support ), which returns a 403 (Forbidden). However, authenticated communication works with the server from the shell with "curl" using the argument "--user myuser:mypass" ( https://curl.se/docs/manpage.html#-u ). I assume I am missing, overlooking or doing something wrong here. Does somebody have experience with this, or know some sample code? Thank You Christian
