RE: Automate connection to Sonic firewall web administration page

Hi there,

I have just realised that logon webpage used to logon into the Sonic
firewall uses a Java applet to hash the password entered on the HTML
form before it submits the page. Is there any way to get round this
using cURL?

There's only a very slim chance that someone here has done any
automation of
exactly your particular web target.

It would be easier and a lot higher probability of success, if you
instead
presented the actual problem and allowed us to present a suggested
solution
or at least ideas, to make it work.

What command lines have you tried? (and why) and what did the server
respond?
What authentication system does it use? etc.
