web transaction monitoring?

[Tom Throckmorton]

Robert,

Have you tried using the --authorization parameter w/ check_httpd?

Something like:

     check_http -H yourhost -a username:password -u /some/url/path -r 
"search string"

Note, if you're trying to check something on the target, not the login 
page, you may also need to use '-f follow', and, of course, you'd 
probably want to move the username:password pair into your resource.cfg, 
and call it as a variable:

     check_http -H yourhost -a $USER5$ -u /some/url/path -f follow -r 
"search string"

Regards,

-tt
