I also tried using --post-data 'user-Login=USER&user_password=PASSWORD'
with no result, where the form in the log-in page is as follows:
<dt><label for="user_login">User name or email:</label></dt>
<dd><input type="text" name="user[login]" id="user_login"/></dd>
<dt><label for="user_password">Password:</label></dt>
<dd><input type="password" name="user[password]" id="user_password"/></dd>
<dt><label for="user_remember_me">Remember me</label></dt>
<dd><input name="user[remember_me]" type="hidden" value="0"/><input
type="checkbox" value="1" name="user[remember_me]" id="user_remember_me"/></dd>
<dt class="landmark">Submit</dt>
<dd class="submit actions">
<input type="submit" name="commit" value="Log in" class="submit"/>
</dd>
