Hi Joe,

 

I am accessing the same url 'https://[userid]:[password]@:443/iControl/iControlPortal.cgi' and my username/password are correct. There is no uppercase/lowercase issue with them. Still I am getting error '(401)F5 Authorization Required'. The only difference is I am using ruby/rails to access it instead of Java. Can you tell me what could be the problem here? Your comment will be very helpful to me.
