I''m trying to use ActiveResource in a ruby script to consume a web service that requires simple HTTP authentication. From the docs, this seems like it should be trivial: require ''rubygems'' require ''activeresource'' #I''m on 2.1.0 class List < ActiveResource::Base self.logger = Logger.new STDOUT self.site = ''http://myuser:mypass-t1rxLZ7CIXjQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org'' end But when I try to use the model, it throws back a 401--even though the same resource works just fine when invoked from a web browser. When I looked at the outbound traffic using WireShark, the Authorization header isn''t even there. Any hints/suggestions?
