No. I have tried that to. And --data-binary and --data-ascii. Then the
server responds that it did not get anything. Well, not where it expect
it to anyway. It responds that it has received the number of bytes that
seems correct but that the file is empty. Any other suggestions? Or is
this a situation where MS might be doing something slightly besides the
standards?
