Would it be useful to save the password in the browser or does it timeout? Would a plug-in like last pass satisfy your needs? (This does not seem a question for the Linux group)Rui F Ribeiro– Rui F Ribeiro2015-11-19 10:02:30 +00:00Commented Nov 19, 2015 at 10:02

plugins like last pass are not an option, I need to launch the browser from terminal passing username and password. The webpage will be displayed on a kiosk without input this all needs to be done from the terminal if possible, without any user input.

Leaving it on a kiosk open wont timeout by default? The best option would be to configure on the webserver an exception not to ask for authentication (yes, I have read you do not control it)Rui F Ribeiro– Rui F Ribeiro2015-11-19 10:21:42 +00:00Commented Nov 19, 2015 at 10:21

It seems a job for some sort of a local proxy doing the authentication and you point your browser to it.Rui F Ribeiro– Rui F Ribeiro2015-11-19 10:22:36 +00:00Commented Nov 19, 2015 at 10:22

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
