Thank you for the example. But I think I am not going about this correctly. What I actually need to be able to do is connect to a web service (which it appears I am able to do), and send it a POST request. Below is an example of the request that I am sending. I think I really just need a curl option that will simply send the request to the web service. Any thoughts, can this be done (I'm hoping!)?
Again, thanks.

Does anyone have a program or example of how to use CURL to set up a custom POST? I need to send a request and then receive a response from the web service. The anyauthput.c example shows how to use HTTP auth with a PUT request, but it also includes some extra stuff (ioctl callback) needed to support the "any" auth type. http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/anyauthput.html For just HTTP Basic auth, here is a working example: https://gist.github.com/p120ph37/71fb340f7a0d38fa5443 -Aaron
