Hi, I've performed a fresh install of KOReader on my Kobo Glo HD. The software is really impressive, congrats !

Howerver, I planed to connect to my Calibre Content Server (on my NAS). The server works nice : I can connect from a browser or in OPDS using Android apps. The server has to be available from WAN so insecure http is not an option, not to mention no password. The server is properly configured in https with a user/password.

I've first tried to connect to a wireless Calibre but without success : I cannot setup a username. Is there a syntax to setup a username and a password ? I've tried the usual user

asswd in the password field, and also https://user@calibre.myserveradress.me in the adress field, without success.

So I've backtracked on OPDS but it doesn't work either. With OPDS, I've set :

Host : https://calibre.myserveradress.me/opds (with or without https/opds)
Port : 443
Username : user
Password : mypassword

The server beeing fine, how can I setup a distant and secure connection to my Calibre library ?
