using msxml2.serverxmlhttp to get list data from sharepoint

[dotolee]

hi there. i have a list on our sharepoint website that my ASP web app needs access to. I am trying to use msxml2.serverXMLhttp to get the contents of the page.
i'm getting the following error message:
err.number = -2147483638
err.description = the necessary data to complete this operation is not yet available.

my code looks like this:
dim xmlhttp, url
url = "

http://wss.my.server.net:40095/sites/apps/ecinfo/lists/devicelist.aspx"

set xmlhttp = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHttp")
xmlhttp.settimeout 10000,10000,10000,10000
xmlhttp.open "GET", url, false, "userid", "password"
xmlhttp.send
response.write xmlhttp.responseText
set xmlhttp = nothing

i had an on error resume next statement at the top. after removing it, now i'm getting the error
"msxml3.dll error: a connection with the server could not be established"

This happens on the .send method
