Chances are the server is using JavaScript or HTML redirects instead of
HTTP redirects (which is the only kind curl honours). Look at the
contents of the last page curl gives you and look for location.href=
or HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh". There are probably hidden forms or cookies that
are needed to avoid the "login period has passed" problem.
