is it possible to create a script so a user can login to a system? i've been searching (possibly with inadequete query) for user authentication with python.

i'm currently a consultant at a r&d firm which has developed a system to stream movies over the internet. i have whittled 4 possible projects into 1, and am now developing the client side version on the xbox.

does xbmc override digital rights on videos? (i belive it was drm)

all i'm looking for right now is if i create a python script to mine data off our site, can we have a login system, which has a password not dependant on text in a local file?

i have added basic authentication to cachedhttp. you can find it at http://www.xbmcscripts.com. here i've done it "manually" by adding the approprite headers if you request an url with this format: http://user:[email protected]/laskjdlkjasdf

otherwise you should look at basicauthhandler in the python documentation.


btw. cachedhttp also supports cookies, so you could also code a login system that is based on querystrings:
