Need to pass the directory name (path) of where the file should be stored on
the target server. Currently it is hardcoded. This app uses webclient,
httpWebRequest and httpWebResponse.
Both applications were written with vs.net 1.0
Create Console app shown below
Then create Webapp shown below after the console app contents
Create a directory C:\SecondPartAGet
    Place a file in the C:\SecondPartAGet - file name is mybogus.log (it can
contain some bogus text)
Create a directory C:\SecondPartBResult

Console application - SecondPartA
