Those two command lines look the same to me.

Are you fetching the login page first, then doing the post, or are you just
jumping right in and posting the login details?? I've found that I often
get some kind of cookie while fetching the login page, so I generally do
something like:

     curl -b cookies -c cookies -s -S -L -o home_page.html
http://server.domain.com/

     curl -b cookies -c cookies -s -S -L -o logged_in.html -d .... -d .....
http://server.domain.com/xxx

Even if you don't get a cookie with the first page fetch, it's possible the
server is checking the "Referer" header to see if you went to the login page
first.
