Doesn't complain about the protocol, it returns without any messages. I'm now waiting for the result of a directory listing (slow link, traffic shaped on top of a none-too-stable WiFi connection). You don't need quotes around the "="s, and a naked "sources" seems like a recipe for failure. But don't think I'm not thrilled that it seems to work! Thank you. ++L
