Thanks, that will be convenient. TSNet also gave a brief description which clued me to the error.

I gave Scott the wrong lesson URL. Scott, the first one was what I used to test (and the one 
that gave the error) but after I got that working I used this lesson:
<https://lessons.livecode.com/m/4071/l/851756-how-to-upload-a-file-using-ftp>

I had to add "put true into tSettings["use_SSL"]" to the login array in the example and change 
"put URL("file:"...)" to use "binfile" because I was uploading a stack. Other than that, no 
changes to the example.

I'm curious though. I didn't change the server scheme, it still uses "ftp://" but Fetch is now 
set to use SSL, it shows a padlock in its listing, and I set "use_SSL" to true in the script. 
Can I assume it really is a secure connection or do I need to change "ftp" to "FTPs" or 
something else? Fetch did accept the upload without error.
