[Xymon] Hide usernam and password in http test

[Chris Pretorius]

Hi

Im running a xymon server installed from the Terabithia repository

Release: xymon-4.3.30-1

I added a http test that requires basic authentication. The password has special characters.

The test works when I add the username and password in the full url, ie. https://server/page.htm?user=User&password=p@sw0rd

The man pages mention a file ~/.netrc where you can store username and password for basic authentication

Which directory should the file be stored on the server.

Best regards
