parsing from secure apache site. simple authentication



Gurus,

I need to create a perl script that runs on a local machine. The script
goes to an Apache http site (not https) that has simple authentication.
Normally you go to the index.htm on the browser, and you get a
username/password challenge window. So the question is, how do I send
my username/password from a text file or some variable in the local
perl scrip. This is the only one thing keeping me from making my script
work.
