ahh...ok. I see. I got all confused - which I guess is normal.
Anyway - some more basic questions / troubleshooting:
1 - in your example above - what are your permissions on the repository
(all the way down to the /revs directory)? Make sure you have full read
and write access.
2 - Are you using a proxy server? I believe I have seen postings in
here with regard to that, too. Something about allowing those methods
through the proxy. The standard GET and PUT are normal standards, but
others are not so standard.
I'm no genius here - just trying to throw out a few more ideas on things
to look at.
Regards,
Frank
