title: Trying to connect to a "digest authentication" webservice using HTTParty or Net:HTTP (or etc)
body: <p>I have been trying to connect to a web service that is using digest authentication. </p>
  
  <p>I am able to connect in Safari using user:password@service.site.com/endpoint</p>
  
  <p>I have tried in Ruby and Rails to connect using HTTParty and Net:HTTP using the "basic"auth" options, but have not had any luck. </p>
  
  <p>Wondering if the HTTParty/Net:HTTP "basic_auth" option is not going to be compatible with a "digest auth" service? </p>
  
  <p>If not, is there another way that I might connect?</p>
