Thanks Daniel for the suggestion of Python, and I would like to try that eventually. But there must be a way with cURL because all examples online are about logging into sites.<br><br>Lucas, your code makes sense. I was essentially doing the same thing. However Im unsure that my post variables are actually being 'posted' or rather what the server reply is, apart from redirect to the login page again. Where do I look for curl logs? the Apache ones dont say much, can I increase curl verbosity? Is all the info I need in the header response for each curl exec?<br>

</div>Once you get some success, and once I manage to get a login to said<br>
hideous portal, I'd love to get a snapshot of how you do it.<br>
