Hi Yosif,

On Linux 0install supports this using the ~/.netrc config file. You can
enter stuff like this:
  machine example.com
  login bob
  password fred

The Windows Version of 0install does not support his yet. I'd be happy to
look into such a feature for the next release.
Do you have any suggestions or requirements as for how the username and
password should be entered?
Would you want to set the credentials in a configuration file like on Linux
or a have a GUI ask for the password each time?

Regards
Bastian

Hi Bastian,

Could you tell me if there is a way to authenticate my feeds. 
For example let say that I have uploaded some feed on web server but I'd
like only specified users to be able to downloaded it by entering user name
and password?

Regards,
Yosif
