Authentication

If you are not running session authentication, to login using the browser location bar url syntax, use the following format:
http://username:password@mindwatering.com/folder/database.nsf/DesignElement

If you are running session authentication, the above will NOT work. Instead you must use the following format:
http://mindwatering.com!login&username=joe&password=mypassword&redirectto=mindwatering.com/folder/database.nsf/DesignElement

Note: For both of these methods the username and password are NOT encrypted when sent to the server.
