try this:
HttpPost post = new HttpPost("http://..../arsys/servlet/LoginServlet";)
List<NameValuePair> formparams = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
formparams.add(new BasicNameValuePair("username", "john"));
formparams.add(new BasicNameValuePair("password", "secret"));
HttpEntity entity = new UrlEncodedFormEntity(formparams);
post.setEntity(entity);
post.execute()...
