405 error on put

I am trying to upload a pdf file to a web server. The server is local
right now for testing.
I am running xp, iis5

I get a 405 error on the post, please help.

String uriString = "http://localhost/PineNet/";
WebClient myWebClient = new WebClient();
string fileName = txtFilename.Text;
byte[] responseArray =
myWebClient.UploadFile(uriString,"POST",fileName);

Try to POST to a page rather than to a directory (String
uriString=http://localhost/PineNet/SomePage.aspx)

I added blank.aspx to the string, and I created a blank page.
I did not get an error, but no file was uploaded.

BTW , by "put" do you mean the english verb or the HTTP verb ? For now you
issue a "POST" request. This is what I would do but do you have some code
server side to handle the posted file ?

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfSystemNetWebClientClassUploadFileTopic1.asp

shows both client side and seerrver side code to post files...
