I remember somewhere that you could use the following:
AuthUser=
AuthPass=
I don't think this covered in the man page and I am afraid I can't
remember where I got it from. I don't think this will work with ssl,
but if all they need is a uid and pw, it just might. Put this in the
conf file.
Good luck,
Bob
