Tracking a page that requires log-in on Google Analytics?

Using Google Anaytics, I want to see the click rate on a page that requires a user to be logged in. Is there a way to login to a website through the GA site overlay?

The GA javascript code you put in your page will be activated (and then, report to GA) every time the page is activated.
Therefore you have full stats for displaying the login page (wether logged in or not, since it will be displayed before the login attempt), and you also have full stats for the other pages, including those where visitors land after logging.

fibo,

   Sorry, I did not phrase the question properly. In the "site overlay" part, I cant log-in to the general user profile to see which links users are clicking.
Can you clarify? I'm slightly confused at what you want to get.
a - You have pages, hosting the GA tracking code. As long as your visitor goes thru these pages, their journey will be tracked. You will be able to monitor their journeys thru the stacking stats, when logging to your GA account.
b - as far as I understand, you cannot track the clicks themselves, but you can track those pages on your site that were clicked to.
c - not sure at what you mean by "general user profile"
