What I really want to know is how to add the content body to the request
after I have got the 100-continue, because at the moment when I try and
do that it doesn't add the file. And I am not sure how you do that, and
I cannot find an examples on the web at all.

Hello Philip,
(and only then) should the file upload start. My problem is that at the
moment whether the username/password is right or wrong the file upload
happens and if the credentials are wrong it get discarded. Now this
isn't a problem with small files but this application will be dealing
with files 100s of MB large so it will cause unneeded delay and file
uploading if I can't change.
you've already enabled the expect-continue handshake. If the server
still doesn't verify the credentials before sending the "continue",
you'll have to split your actions into two requests: the first to
make sure that the credentials are ok, the second for the upload.
You could/should also complain to whomever it is that implemented
the server that it doesn't work as it should. Note however that the
HTTP specification does not *require* servers to check credentials
before sending the "continue". It only suggests that they should.
hope that helps,
Roland
