Is this basic authentication? If so, check_http can do that. If not, you'll need to find / write a plugin specific to what you are trying to log in to.

Did you install Nagios Plugins when you did your Nagios instillation? If you did, it is in your /usr/local/nagios/libexec directory.

You can use the Website Monitoring wizard to monitor a page with credentials.

Configure Menu > Monitoring Wizard > Website
