Max Dzyuba commented on NUTCH-827:
----------------------------------

Jasper, if you're still around, can you please answer Ian's question? I have a 
similar problem figuring out how exactly I can provide the username and 
password.

Thank you!

> I've created a patch against the trunk which adds support for very 
> rudimentary POST-based authentication support. It takes a link from 
> nutch-site.xml with a site to POST to and its respective parameters 
> (username, password, etc.). It then checks upon every request whether any 
> cookies have been initialized, and if none have, it fetches them from the 
> given link.
> This isn't perfect but Works For Me (TM) as I generally only need to retrieve 
> results from a single domain and so have no cookie overlap (i.e. if the 
> domain cookies expire, all cookies disappear from the HttpClient and I can 
> simply re-fetch them). A natural improvement would be to be able to specify 
> one particular cookie to check the expiration-date against. If anyone is 
> interested in this beside me I'd be glad to put some more effort into making 
> this more universally applicable.
