Hello ,
I would like to ask a question related to C# WebClient.
I am trying to upload a file using this code:

webClient.UploadFile(httpPath, "PUT", filePath);

The thing is that I want to upload on UNIX server and the question is
how can I provide httpPath on UNIX? How can I create "virtual directory"
on UNIX for this?

Thank you very much!

First question: does your Unix HTTP server support PUT ? (not all do)

Usually on Unix you add mappings from URL to file system in the
HTTP servers config file.

But I want to add another option to map a drive or to upload a file by
sending http url with the location on the server. The question is how
can I do that?
For example for IIS I send as parameter to Upload:
http://localhost/NewDir/data.zip ,what should I send in UNIX instead?

Thank you!

There is nothing IIS specific in that.

If your Apache is configured to do PUT then /NewDirdata.zip
should show up wherever the config mapping from URL to
dir say it should.
