I doubt you have a firewall issue. If a firewall intercepts your connection,
you'll get "Connection refused" errors. Authentication won't help then.

You should use a browser to access the page and monitor the requests
that are sent there. The try to re-create the same sequence using
HttpClient. Sending a single PostRequest is almost sure to fail. Most
servers require a session to be established first. So you have to perform
a GET on the site to obtain a session cookie and send a POST afterwards
for login. Once you have established a session and authenticated, you
can try to post data to your account.
hope that helps,
