cURL Users,

     I am trying to post a file to a URL (hosted by a printer) via cURL.
When I do it through FireFox with HTTPHeadaers on I get:

http://157.184.32.21/cgi-bin/importfile/cgi-bin/dynamic/config/secure/importsettings.html

I have tried posting the file V34True.ucf with this command:

"C:\Boeing\curl.exe" --max-time 6 -F
input_file=@"C:\Boeing\V34True.ucf;type=multipart/form-data"
http://157.184.31.21/cgi-bin/dynamic/config/secure/importsettings.html >
"C:\Boeing\V34TrueUCFOutput.txt"

The contents of V34True.ucf:

// anything

mfp.fax.enableV34 "true

This is what I get when I run the command from the DOS box:

C:\Boeing>"C:\Boeing\curl.exe" --max-time 6 -F
input_file=@"C:\Boeing\V34True.uc
f;type=multipart/form-data"
http://157.184.31.21/cgi-bin/dynamic/config/secure/
importsettings.html > "C:\Boeing\V34TrueUCFOutput.txt"

curl: (28) connect() timed out!

C:\Boeing>

Any advice on posting this file would be appreciated.
