You need to find out where the form is submitted (to what URL) and what data
is stored in the form. That's the URL you need to request with curl (as a
POST operation, presumably) and you need to include whatever fields are
stored in the form, including username, password and any hidden fields that
can be revealed by looking at the HTML.
