Using nagios check_http for web based authentication

[Venugopal S]

Hi,



Can I do a check on a particular website by supplying the username and
password to nagios check_http commandline ?



To be clear :



Assume that I want to check whether login action happens properly on my
website which is www.venu.com <http://www.venu.com/> . And the login
page name is www.venu.com/signup.do . This form would take username and
password and send a POST request to www.venu.com/autorize.do. How will i
check this in nagios ?



If it had been GET method, I would have done that. But in my case, it is
POST method.



Please help me out.



Thanks

Venu
