HTTP authorixation in check_http doesn't work

Although its highly likely I could be wrong, I was under the impression that the authentication option for check_http only works on sites using basic authentication.

 

Its sounds like the site you are trying to access is possibly using Integrated Windows or Digest authentication because you are having to enter the domain name.

Why do you use "\n" before the user? Did you try a \\user? One \ for the
bash and one for the plugin?

Thanks for you answer Henrik.
Of course \n and other credentials are not real.
I also used double \\ but the result is the same:
HTTP WARNING: HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized

When I tried to login through browser it works

thx
