Hi, I want to use fetch to get some files from our http snap server but it requires username and password; Here's the details username: renem password: mhall[;] How will I tell fetch to use those details and automatically provide it when the server asks for it? The reason why I want to do this is because I want the task to become automated during boot time. I also noticed the password contains special characters, but I don't know if they'll have to be escaped. Perhaps you do. Any idea? thanks. -jay _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
