Ok, ignore that last message. As soon as I clicked 'send' I realized
that it was probably a vsftp problem, and it was. However, I will say
that a little error message on Nautilus' part would be nice.

My second question still stands: Anyone have any specific knowledge of
the future of Zeroconf support in Gnome? It seems like KDE is pulling
ahead, and OSX is lightyears out.
