I find myself needing to aggregate the data from two reports. One report is sitting on my own server, so there is no issue getting the data for it. The problem I am having is that the other report I need to get is sitting behind a login screen on a site developed in ASP.NET.

My plan is to use cUrl to log into the site, download the report, and then log out. This needs to be done daily, so it needs to be automated.

I have not been able to determine how to fool ASP.NET into making the postback work and the login to validate. I have Googled the issue using multiple phrases and keywords, and have been unable to find anything that has worked. Anyone here have any ideas?
