You need to send the arguments "method" and "nonce" as post arguments. You will also want to set Content-Type as application/x-www-form-urlencoded and set the HTTP headers Key and Sign.
Take a look at the Crypsty.java method authrequest() in the following github repository for a java example. If you rework your code i'll be glad to help you debug it.

Have you solved this problem, very interested in how.
Also sent you a PM.
Also sent you a PM.
Does this shed any light:
?
Code:
[b]Authenticated Methods [/b]
Authenticated methods require the use of an api key and can only be accessed via the POST method.
URL - The URL you will be posting to is: https://www.cryptsy.com/api (notice it does NOT have the '.php' at the end)
?
Since nobody else has answered yet, here's a guess: maybe you need to set the POST body content-type. If this is C#/.NET, try setting the HttpWebRequest object's ContentType and maybe also ContentLength as shown in the example code here.
DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
int tick = dt.Year + dt.Month + dt.Day + dt.Hour + dt.Minute + dt.Second + dt.Millisecond;
string par = "method=getinfo&nonce=" + tick.ToString();
byte[] parBytes = encoding.GetBytes(par);
var keyByte = encoding.GetBytes(privKey + par);
var hmac = new HMACSHA512(keyByte);
string finalPass = BitConverter.ToString(hmac.Key, 0).Replace("-", "");
string url = "https://www.cryptsy.com/api.php";
var webRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
webRequest.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(pubKey, finalPass);
if (webRequest != null)
{
webRequest.Method = "POST";
Stream newStream = webRequest.GetRequestStream();
// Send the data.
newStream.Write(parBytes, 0, parBytes.Length);
newStream.Close();
var httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)webRequest.GetResponse();
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(httpResponse.GetResponseStream()))
{
var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
}
why i always get in result: {"success":0,"error":"unknown method"}
