Thread:Extension talk:LDAP Authentication/LDAP Authentication with Google Mini Search Appliance

I'm trying to set up our Google Mini Search Appliance to index our Wiki, and it does a grand job on pages that don't need authorization. However, there are a few pages that are protected by LDAP Authentication and HALOAcl access control lists. The protected pages aren't in the Wiki's index of pages, so I force the appliance to that URL, and restrict the searches out of the default_collections and put the hits from the protected pages in another collection. However, when the appliance hits the page, it doesn't traverse the links. I've put in an account name and password that is authorized to view the pages into the Crawler Access screen with the URL to the protected page, but that doesn't seem to do anything.

Would the LDAP auth extension keep the GSA from accessing? In the documentation, it says that the search appliance is using simple HTML auth, but passing the username/password in the URL to the protected pages doesn't log in. How else can this be accomplished?
