Hi Satish, we have to discriminate between the client- and the server side. If you have a successful login with DAVExplorer the server side is now working properly. On client side you can easily access an address that is protected with basic authentication using the commons-http-client.(see http://jakarta.apache.org/httpcomponents/httpclient-3.x/) For authentication look at http://jakarta.apache.org/httpcomponents/httpclient-3.x/authentication.html
