    The trick to this is going to be figuring out what credentials you need to
    access the SharePoint server and then pass those in the correct format. I
    suggest setting IE to always prompt for Windows Integrated authentication
    and then make sure you pass the same stuff in your WebRequest via the
    Credentials property. WebRequest is really just doing what the browser is
    doing, so your goal is to make sure you can simulate that properly.

    I'm not sure what else I can tell you without having more details about how
    the authentication with SharePoint is working.
