 You want to add manually the Authorization field in the request, right?
 Here is an example :

 String user = "???";
 String passwd= "???";
 w3c.tools.codec.Base64Encoder encoder = 
	new w3c.tools.codec.Base64Encoder(user+":"+passwd);
 request.setValue("Authorization", "Basic "+encoder.processString());
