also, you'll wan tto do some research, if you're not using domain
authentication (which the http-user/passwd stuff is), then you're going to
need to assign the POST vars, i think this is as easy as:

export USERNAME=duncan
export PASSWORD=p00st1nK

before your wget command.  well, that all really depends on the POST vars
it's looking for.

now, if you're doing a GET authentication (doubtful), then just put it in
the url you're wget'ing.
