This sounds like you're not handling some dynamic authentication token which is required in the post data or in the HTTP header.

There is a JMeter webinar which also covers exactly this scenario and how to solve it: [this video] UPDATE 1: Sound like you're testing an asp.net application. They can be very finicky with JMeter.

I have tried out Jmeter briefly but I think to it's for you to try it out yourself, there are a number of Jmeter tutorials on the Jmeter site itself as well as on youtube which should prove useful. Below are some links: [LINK] [this video] Hope these links help you in getting a better understanding of Jmeter.

You can use Apache JMeter [LINK] to conduct the load from 3rd-party web server. With PerfMon Metrics Collector [LINK] plugin you will be able to get server-side health metrics along with the load test results. See Getting Started: Scripting with JMeter guide [LINK] and Learn JMeter in 60 minutes [this video] for quick ramp-up on Apache JMeter.
