There are a few problems with what you are trying to do:
1) There is no such page as http://resellers.opensrs.net/index.cgi .
The page is https://rr-n1-tor.opensrs.net/~vpop/resellers/index.cgi
2) The system does not use HTTP passwords, as you have specified. It uses
cookies which are set when you log in. From then, it uses the cookie to
authenticate.
So, in order to do what you want, you need to write something a little more
complex that posts a form to a secure page, reads back the cookie that is
set, and then re-sends that cookie in future queries.
