Synchronizing file from "C:\folderName" to web server "http://localhost:80/Content/Files/"

Question

Dear friends,

I want to synchronize folder/sub-folders/files from file system to web-server/local-server

My application is working fine as long as i give source and destination path as local directories("C:\Source", "C:\ Destination" , but when i change it source from "C:\Source" to "web server" using WebRequest method i get exception of "URI formats are not supported"

WebRequest serverAdress = WebRequest.Create("http://localhost:80/Content/Files/") as HttpWebRequest;

serverAdress.Method = "POST";

serverAdress.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("http://localhost:80/", "Anonymous");

startSync(serverAdress.RequestUri.ToString(), thisUser);

And here is my synchronization function

private bool Synchronize(String source, String destination)
        {
            SyncOperationStatistics syncOperationStatistics;
            //Assign Unique Guids to the source and destination replicas
            sourceReplicaID = GetReplicaID(Path.Combine(source, "ReplicaID"));
            destinationReplicaID = GetReplicaID(Path.Combine(destination, "ReplicaID"));

            //Create the source Sync Provider, attach the path and assign the ReplicaID
            sourceProvider = new FileSyncProvider(sourceReplicaID, source);
            //Create the destination Sync Provider, attach the path and assign the ReplicaID
            destinationProvider = new FileSyncProvider(destinationReplicaID, destination);

            SyncOrchestrator synchronizationAgent = new SyncOrchestrator();
            synchronizationAgent.LocalProvider = sourceProvider;
            synchronizationAgent.RemoteProvider = destinationProvider;

            try
            {
                //Start the synchronization process
                syncOperationStatistics = synchronizationAgent.Synchronize();

                //Assign synchronization statistics to the lstStatistics control


                //listBox1.Items.Add("Download Applied: " + syncOperationStatistics.DownloadChangesApplied.ToString());
                //listBox1.Items.Add("Download Failed: " + syncOperationStatistics.DownloadChangesFailed.ToString());
                //listBox1.Items.Add("Download Total: " + syncOperationStatistics.DownloadChangesTotal.ToString());
                //listBox1.Items.Add("Upload Total: " + syncOperationStatistics.UploadChangesApplied.ToString());
                //listBox1.Items.Add("Upload Total: " + syncOperationStatistics.UploadChangesFailed.ToString());
                //listBox1.Items.Add("Upload Total: " + syncOperationStatistics.UploadChangesTotal.ToString());
            }
            catch (Microsoft.Synchronization.SyncException se)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(se.Message, "Sync Files - Error");
                return false;
            }
            finally
            {
                // Release resources once done
                if (sourceProvider != null)
                    sourceProvider.Dispose();
                if (destinationProvider != null)
                    destinationProvider.Dispose();
            }

            return true;
        }
