   Not sure where to post this but simply I want to upload a file using the   
   WebClient, ie:   
      
   Try   
       Dim wc As New WebClient   
       wc.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("someuser",   
   "somepass")   
       wc.UploadFile("http://localhost/public/", "PUT", "c:\test.txt")   
   Catch ex As Exception   
       Console.WriteLine(ex.Message)   
       Console.ReadKey()   
   End Try   
      
   It always returns : The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.   
      
   I have permissions set on public for read/write, I have web shared the   
   folder. Im guessing its how I have IIS setup. Using XP Pro sp3 and IIS.
