I'm using HttpWebRequest to pull down XML, and POST data back to a 'WebService' and getting a 401 on the POST.

I have a button on my webform. Clicking this button will do an HttpWebRequest during the onclick event handler. After the request we copy the response from the request into HttpContext.Current.Response and send that to the client.

I'm having a problem with a POST I'm doing using the HttpWebRequest object from C#. In order to analyze the problem I would like to know exactly what is being sent over the wire.
