Authentication

This time the server should reply with something similar to the following if the password was correct. (As well as a few Set-Cookies, which are not important)

If the password was wrong, it would include the header WWW-Authenticate with a value like Passport1.4 da-status=failed.

In the header Authentication-Info there is a value called from-PP, the value is what you send back to the NS, the from-PP value is between the two apostrophes. It will be something like t=xxx$&p=xxx$.
