Public Class methods

Performs an authentication to the Cloud Files servers. Opens a new HTTP connection to the API server, sends the credentials, and looks for a successful authentication. If it succeeds, it sets the cdmmgmthost, cdmmgmtpath, storagehost, storagepath, authtoken, and authok variables on the connection. If it fails, it raises an AuthenticationException.

Should probably never be called directly.
