WRITEREAD Procedure
The read count specifying the space allocated for the response should be large enough
to contain the response. It must be at least 12 bytes to contain the response header and
large enough to contain the response to the verb being issued. Failure to comply with
this will result in a file-system error. The error will vary with the verb.
