HTTP PUT Method and IIS

| Hello. To make use of the HTTP PUT method on IIS, do I need to configure or install anything special?
Thank you.

Nope, but you will need a script to read/manipulate the data.

Thanks for responding!
Could you please provide (i.e., point me in the direction of) such a script (for reading/manipulating HTTP PUT data)?
Thank you.

That all depends on what you're trying to achieve, but to test your form is
sending meaningful data:
<%
dim x
For each x in Request.Form
Response.Write x & " = " & Request.Form(x) & "<br>"
Next
%>

| I've been attempting to use HttpSendRequest in a VB6 application to perform an HTTP PUT to a Windows 2000 Server Web server (IIS 5.0). The code looks something like:
Public Declare Function HttpOpenRequest Lib "wininet.dll" Alias "HttpOpenRequestA" (ByVal hConnect As Long, ByVal sVerb As String, ByVal sObjectName As String, ByVal sVersion As String, ByVal sReferer As String, ByVal sAcceptTypes As String, ByVal lFlags
As Long, ByVal lContext As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function HttpSendRequest Lib "wininet.dll" Alias "HttpSendRequestA" (ByVal hRequest As Long, ByVal sHeaders As String, ByVal lHeadersLength As Long, ByVal sOptional As String, ByVal lOptionalLength As Long) As Integer
..
..
..
hHTTPOpenRequestHandle = HttpOpenRequest(hInternetConnectHandle, "PUT", "/test.txt", sVersion, sReferrer, sAcceptTypes, lFlagsHttpOpenRequest, lContextHttpOpenRequest)
iHttpSendRequestEx = HttpSendRequest(hHTTPOpenRequestHandle, "", 0, "Test_string", Len("Test_string"))
When I run this code, HttpSendRequest returns TRUE as desired, indicating (I believe) that the request was sent to the Web server machine. But the file test.txt does not get written to the machine! What am I doing wrong? Please help or advise where I m
ight find help.
Thank you.

a vb6 newsgroup would seem to be favourite.
my server carries news:comp.lang.visual.basic which looks promising. I
suspect there are several on the microsoft news servers.

| Please allow me to step away from the coding aspects of my problem for a moment.
I used the program "wfetch" (version 1.2) to attempt to perform an HTTP PUT to a virtual directory on the target Web server. This directory does not permit anonymous access but does permit reads & writes. I do not have a certificate on the server.
Using Basic authentication, I get a "401 Access Denied message" from the server. Using NTLM authentication, I get a "501 Not Supported" message. I feel, thus, that the machine is not configured properly for HTTP PUT.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.

yep - stop making it hard on yourself.
allow anonymous access and place two files on the server. The first
containing a simple HTML form with at least one input element and a submit
button - which when submitted sends the data to the second page which is an
asp page that contains the trivial script to display the data.
Is this a public server? Does it have a URL?
