I have plenty of other http url’s using basic authentication working but for some reason some new URL’s im setting up dont seem to want to authenticate. I can manually hit the site and use the credentials in the pop up and it authenticates fine, but for some reason these sites give a 401. I tried formatting the user id in different ways but the plugins dont seem to like this at all. Any ideas of how to troubleshoot this?
CMK version:
check_mk 1.6.0p20
OS version:
RHEL8
Error message:
401
Output of “cmk --debug -vvn hostname”: (If it is a problem with checks or plugins)

I also tried the classic nagios check_http plugin:
[plugins]$ ./check_http -v -u ‘/SmartAdvisorReportingSharedUAT/home.aspx’ ‘-a’ ‘prod\operator:password’ ‘–onredirect=follow’ ‘-L’ ‘–sni’ ‘(hostname)’
option f:4
