Curl PUT "Method not allowed"

Question

I'd like to simply store a file using curl with PUT metchod to my home apache web-serwer running on Windows 7. When i issue a simple command like:

curl --upload-file /path/to/file/badname --url http://serverip

i get an error:

Method not allowed

Must i have any handler script on apache to simply add/store a file on a server using curl and PUT?
