NSMutableURLRequest is probably most flexible for this sort of work. Take a look at the solution here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/471898/google-app-engine-with-clientlogin-interface-for-objective-c
If that doesn't help can you clarify your question please.

Maddy,
The Apple docs on NSURLConnection (http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/URLLoadingSystem/Tasks/UsingNSURLConnection.html) have a good section on handling authentication requests.
What you'll need to do is use the async mode of NSURLConnection and define a delegate for the connection that has an appropriate didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge: method in the delegate. This method will be called if the HTTP server demands authentication. There are classes in the SDK that assist with building the BASIC authentication response for this method and I believe that the aforementioned URL has some example code within that documentation.
