You should be able to post with -F, but it's really meant for uploading
files during the post.

Try: curl -A "Mozilla/4.0" -c cookie.txt -d "username=xchris&password=XXXX"
http://ftorrent.mine.nu/index.php

Depending on the action you may/maynot want too use -L to follow location in
case it's a redirect. Either way, just play with it to see ..
