I have successfully implemented xAuth in the Perl Net::Twitter library.
Here's what a Net::Twitter generated xAuth request looks like:
GET
https://twitter.com/oauth/access_token?oauth_consumer_key=CONSUMER_KEY&oauth_nonce=t7exD9FGmYkMfi0PIYGdlXnlF04&oauth_signature=E3ef0zZ%2B%2Btnaf7tQdTDu2znFyjI%3D&oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1&oauth_timestamp=1267565624&oauth_version=1.0&x_auth_mode=client_auth&x_auth_password=secret&x_auth_username=fred
User-Agent: Net::Twitter/3.11008 (Perl)
X-Twitter-Client: Perl Net::Twitter
X-Twitter-Client-URL: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-Twitter/
X-Twitter-Client-Version: 3.11008
For this example, I used:
consumer_key = 'CONSUMER_KEY'
consumer_secret = 'CONSUMER_SECRET'
x_auth_username = 'fred'
x_auth_secret = 'secret'
Hope this helps.
