Hi Huang,

Sorry for a late reply, had quite a busy weekend. You can use
RMetaWebLog for MSN spaces, here is the format I use to get connected:

So my code same for Spaces is:

blog = RMetaWebLog.new("storage.msn.com", "/storageservice/
MetaWeblog.rpc", 443,
{:blog_url => "blogname.spaces.live.com",
:blog_id => "MyBlog",
:api_user => "myuser",
:api_pass => "mypass",
:use_ssl => true
} )

Try like that and let me know, I've quickly checked and it looks like
you used an http:// in blog_url which is not needed.

Regards,
Pieter Steyn
