Ah. I misunderstood. Sorry about that. Unfortunately I haven't had any experience trying to do this, as all our auth is to AD.

 

However, you could try disabling event validation and viewstate on the ASP.NET side (may have to google around to find a good method of doing that. Here's one link I found that may help), which would eliminate the need for those form fields. Then you may be able to do the post successfully. Wouldn't always recommend disabling those things since eventvalidation is there for security and viewstate for performance and state management, but you may be able to disable them for just the login page which might accomplish what you're looking for.
