How can I get a mobile app to call an SSL REST service?

Question

I have a mobile application I created and have it installed on my Motorola Xoom.  It calls out to a REST based services which is locked down via https.  WHen I call in in the debugger I get the following:
Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: https://myserver:443/rest/Policy/policy123?TransType=125" errorID=2032]. URL: https://myserver:443/rest/Policy/policy123
WHat do I do to get this to work.  There is a similar error on my Xoom but this one shows as:
Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032:" errorID=2032]. URL: https://myserver:443/rest/Policy/policy123
any clue what I need to do to get this to work??

I am in the same boat, trying to get data from a site with simple Apache Basic Authentication.  I couldnt get the FB/AIR App for iPad to popup the login window. Then, I hard coded in my own login credentials as:
URLRequestDefaults.setLoginCredentialsForHost("99.99.99.99", "alan", "1234");
That worked to get logged in at least, and did bring back the data OK.
Still working on the getting the popup the login window.
