I forgot to mention that the problem here is that I understand that
CFNetwork's CFHTTPAuthentication wasn't about in 10.2.4 land which is why I
need to use something which is. The old URLManager API were buggy which is
why I was forced to write my own, and this is why I'm now looking to expand
this.
I hope when we get to 10.5.3 or something marketing can look to drop
10.2.x (and set 10.3.0 as the base) as when I wrote my own URL code it
needed to work on 10.1.x, so I use CFHTTPAuthentication I'll still need to
do something on the OS which don't have them, so I might as well take the
bull by the horns, or API by the RFC :-).
I think I have worked out basic, I'll just have to check tomorrow or later
today as really late here in the UK, what these router requiring
authentication wise.
Thanks
Mark.
