I follow this tut http://www.yiiframew...-rest-api/#hh14
and I have a method for authentication is

private function _checkAuth() {

        // Check if we have the USERNAME and PASSWORD HTTP headers set?

        if (!(isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_' . self::APPLICATION_ID . '_USERNAME']) and isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_' . self::APPLICATION_ID . '_PASSWORD']))) {

            // Error: Unauthorized

            $this->_sendResponse(401);
        }

        $username = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_' . self::APPLICATION_ID . '_USERNAME'];

        $password = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_' . self::APPLICATION_ID . '_PASSWORD'];

        // Find the user

        $user = User::model()->find('LOWER(username)=?', array(strtolower($username)));

        if ($user === null) {

            // Error: Unauthorized

            $this->_sendResponse(401, 'Error: User Name is invalid');
        } else if (!$user->validatePassword($password)) {

            // Error: Unauthorized

            $this->_sendResponse(401, 'Error: User Password is invalid');
        }
    }

How I can test this method by RESTClient addon
with header info
- name: ?
- value: ?
- body: ?
