GetRequestStream Strange Behaviour

Hi all,
I have two applications on the same machine with exactly the same
code. One is a Console application that is used for testing and the
other runs in a sharepoint web part. The Console application works
fine, but calling this:
     using (Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream())
                {
                    requestStream.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
                    requestStream.Close();
                }
on the web part always results n a timeout exception.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Ammar

Hello, ash***@gmail.com!

Can you give more details about requests your application is making? Are
they HTTP requests?
Do you use HttpWebRequest?

yes I am using a HttpWebRequest object and have set all the neccessary
propoerties: Timeout,credentials and the like. The request is targeted
towards our exchange server and I have noticed that ssl is playing a
role. Sharepoint is probably changing substituting https with http.
Console application also fails if I use http.
