.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\f(CW\*(C`LWP::Authen::Wsse\*(C'\fR allows \s-1LWP\s0 to authenticate against servers that are using
the \f(CW\*(C`X\-WSSE\*(C'\fR authentication scheme, as required by the Atom Authentication \s-1API.\s0
.PP
The module is used indirectly through \s-1LWP,\s0 rather than including it directly in
your code.  The \s-1LWP\s0 system will invoke the \s-1WSSE\s0 authentication when it
encounters the authentication scheme while attempting to retrieve a \s-1URL\s0 from a
server.
.PP
You also need to set the credentials on the UserAgent object like this:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&   $ua\->credentials(\*(Aqwww.company.com:80\*(Aq, \*(Aq\*(Aq, "username", "password");
.Ve
.PP
Alternatively, you may also subclass \fBLWP::UserAgent\fR and override the 
\&\f(CW\*(C`get_basic_credentials()\*(C'\fR method.  See LWP::UserAgent for more details.
