Hi thanks for the tip, however it has not solved the problem.
I think I'm already able to make the connection as I get prompted for the
password on this URL (http://x.x.x.39/cruisecontrol), but when I enter in
details, the prompt just re-iterates itself. (problem delivering the
passwords I presume, as the user/passwd are correct)
Anyone have any ideas?
