Does anyone know any Web and/or FTP sites with authentication?

I had a GUI project with a NSWebView and a NSURLProtocol subclass. We here couldn’t figure out why the subclass didn’t work. I thought of taking out the GUI stuff to make it easier to debug the protocol stuff. So I made a command-line tool (at GitHub -> CTMacUser -> cget) to eventually put the protocol subclass in to test. But, it has ended up being an interesting project on its own.

I want to try doing user & password next. But to do that, I need to register at Web and FTP sites that need a username and password. Any ideas? (Note that modern Web sign-ins are _javascript_ and cookies. That doesn’t count; I need a web site that brings up the separate user/password dialog. The modern type has to wait until I implement cookie support.)

Presumably, using a URL with the user/password built-in should work. If any of you want to try that yourselves, go ahead. You should use the just-uploaded “Third Draft” (i.e. v0.3). You can use the input-file option if you don’t want to put the URL on the command line (and expose your password to “ps”.)
