+Summary: Authorization field in WebHeaderCollection is not set
+
+Description of Problem:
+Although positionning the authorization field within webheadercollection, 
+this is not transmetted on the net (see with ethereal). so we can't send 
+request to securized server.
+
+here is my code 
+				
+string url = "myIpAdress";
+
+HttpWebRequest req = (HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create(url);
+req.KeepAlive = false;
+
+// Define the request access method. 
+req.Method = "POST";
+
+//prepare the password and login
+string sOut = "MyLogin"+":"+"MyPassword";
+byte[] bytValue = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sOut);
+sOut = System.Convert.ToBase64String(bytValue, 0, bytValue.Length);
+
+req.Headers["Authorization"] = "Basic " + sOut;
+
+//I also try with this code but it doesn't work
+//req.Headers.Set("Authorization", "Basic " + sOut);
+//or
+//req.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic " + sOut );
+
+//send the request
+HttpWebResponse result = (HttpWebResponse) req.GetResponse();
+
+
+Additional Information:
+In All case the webserver send a 401 response and I have an exception.
