Ruby request getting denied

[GimmeThoseBits]

Ok I thought this was a token auth thing, but now I'm not so sure.

I'm making an HTTP GET request with Ruby like this:

url = URI.parse('http://<myIP>:<myPort>/gui/')

req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url.path)

res = Net::HTTP.start(url.host, url.port) {|http|

http.request(req)

}

puts res

and I keep getting:

<Net::HTTPUnauthorized:0x2da0014>

It also happens if I append the '/index.html' onto the end.

The WebUI itself is working fine, and I've tried turning the webui.token_auth option off and no difference.

Anyone have any ideas?

Yes. You need to supply the username and password you set in the µtorrent webui options through HTTP BASIC AUTH.

I'm new to ruby and new to the web api.
