How do I authenticate for TFile::Open("http:...")?

ROOT
1

G’day,

I’m trying to open a root file on a web server that is password protected:

root [6] TFile::Open ("http://www-cdf.fnal.gov/~cplager/internal/Analysis/TopFCNC/log/0902/090225_090224_KIT$
Error in <TWebFile::GetHead>: http://www-cdf.fnal.gov/~cplager/internal/Analysis/TopFCNC/log/0902/090225_090224_KIT.root: Authorization Required (401)

I’ve tried TAuthenticate::SetGlobalUser and TAuthenticate::SetGlobalPasswd with no luck.

I didn’t have any luck googling for this.

Thanks,
Charles

Hi,

this is currently not yet implemented. I hope to find time to do it soon.

Cheers, Fons.

At least I didn’t overlook something obvious. :smiley: Thanks.
