There are two ways of doing this:

1. Use something like apache benchmark; simulate the authentication
   mechanism and request the page with the form so you can examine
   the headers.

   Apache benchmark is a program called ab that comes with apache
   itself.

2. Use your normal web-browser and sniff the packets using something
   like ethereal:

       http://www.ethereal.com/

You might find (2) is a bit easier if doing dcboard authentication
without a browser is tricky.
