I am trying to automatically logon to a secure web server. I have not been able to figure out the syntax to accomplilsh this however. By my estimation, something akin to: cat << --- | lynx --post_data https://wwws.domainserver.com user=me passwd=mypass --- should do the trick. Well, it doesn't (bar the missing quotations around the cat data). Furthermore, I do not know what to do for the button that has to be 'pressed.' Assistance is appreciated, Harland
