ESXi 5 kickstart file behind http-auth

Hello,

I'm trying to retrieve a ks file that is being protected by http auth. Is there a way to pass the username/password through the kernel params to get the to the protected file? I've tried

ks=https://user:password@192.168.3.13/ks but it thinks user is the hostname and everything after the second : is the port number. Is there a way to do this?

Error (see log for more info):

File (https://user:password@192.168.3.13/ks) connection filed. Made 5 attempts.

nonnumeric port: 'password@192.168.3.13'

Thanks in advance!
