Newer versions of Lynx (I know 2.8pre and higher) supports SSL as well as basic authentication.
If you run 'lynx -version', you should get something like below. Look for 'OpenSSL' to ensure that your version of Lynx supports SSL: Lynx Version 2.8.4rel.1 (17 Jul 2001) libwww-FM 2.14, SSL-MM 1.4.1, OpenSSL 0.9.6b Built on cygwin Aug 8 2001 09:50:20 Copyrights held by the University of Kansas, CERN, and other contributors. Distributed under the GNU General Public License. See http://lynx.browser.org/ and the online help for more information. See http://www.moxienet.com/lynx/ for information about SSL for Lynx. See http://www.openssl.org/ for information about OpenSSL.
