You should look on something like: @HeaderParam or @PathParam

in Jersey it looks like:

 @Get
    @Path("/mywebservice")
    public Response myWebService(@HeaderParam String username, 
                                 @HeaderParam String password)
    {
    ...
    }

but you should remember that this way of sending/receiving username and password isn't too secure ;)

I don't know what framework you are using but if you use Spring, you can do it like this:

@Controller
public class SampleController {

@RequestMapping(value="/test/{name}/{password}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String doTest(@PathVariable String name,@PathVariable String password, ModelMap model) {
    System.out.println("REST paras name:"+name+",password:"+password);
    return "samplePage";
}
}

then ,url path like [/test/{name}/info] [/test/{name}/info.*] [/test/{name}/info/] will pass to this method!
