supplying username and password to Slide client

Hi

	I'm trying to learn about WebDAV and I've gotten the Slide client up  
and running on my Mac.   I'd like to be able to download/upload files  
from/to my .Mac account using Slide - but I can't seem to find a  
reference that explains how to supply a username and password.  Both  
a username and password are necessary when accessing one's iDisk.

	In any event - the client's running and I see the '[ Slide ]'  
prompt.  FWIW I got the WebDAV mac client called 'Goliath' up and  
running.

	So - has anyone in the group been able to access/update the data in  
their .Mac account using Slide ?   If so - how'd you do it.

Thanks
Dave

Many clients accepts the user/pass embedded in the url;

http://username:password@host://path/
