Hi Tim, You can't do that. FTP is for transferring whole files. If you really want to append to the file on the server, you'll have to use NFS or Samba to remote-mount the filesystem. On the other hand, REBOL shouldn't crash, it should probably give an error message advising that you can't insert into an ftp:// port. Cheers, Kev
