Hi,

I've got an RSS feed I'd like to consume from our Sharepoint server.
When I try:

$xml = simplexml_load_file($url);

I get

failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized

This is understandable as I need to specify a username and password to
access the RSS. How can I do this with SimpleXML, or, should I first
call the URL with cURL and work with the stream locally?

I thought there may be some global params I could set for the stream
handling library of PHP.

Thanks

Andrew
