Good.

Please, pay attention, that you cannot make a POST without getting
the form, therefore, the first is GET as in the example is required:

# GET-part
URL= http://10.30.6.42:8888/vax/root/Admin
URL_SHORT_NAME="Login-GET"
REQUEST_TYPE=GET
TIMER_URL_COMPLETION = 4000
TIMER_AFTER_URL_SLEEP =0

# POST-part
URL=""
URL_SHORT_NAME="Login-POST"
URL_USE_CURRENT= 1
REQUEST_TYPE=POST
FORM_USAGE_TYPE= RECORDS_FROM_FILE
FORM_STRING= username=%s&password=%s     #means credentials from file
FORM_RECORDS_FILE= ./conf-examples/credentials.cred # Path relative to
curl-loader location

It might be the case, however:

1. Please, make the first Get;
2. Make a capture using some sniffer like wireshark and see in the capture,
   if you are getting the POST-form by Get and that it contains all the
required fields to add.

   You might be consulted at this point by somebody with experience in HTTP,
HTML, etc.

3. Start with 2-3 initial parameters, you may not receive OK, but some
response you may get.
