I think it isn't clear what I want to do. Is t possible to dend basic 
http authentication of the form

http://username:passwor@urlofmywms

with gvsig. If I try to use the URL in that way, gvsig always cuts the 
username:password@ from the given url. Is it possible to prevent gvsig 
from cutting the authentication part.
