The only other possibility that comes to mind is that you don't have the
incoming directory listed as an allowed upload target in /etc/ftpaccess .
"man ftpaccess" will give you the needed details.
If that's not it, I'm out of ideas. Sorry.
P.S. I'm restoring linux-newbie to the Cc: list. These discussions should
remain on the list, not become private.
