Hello, all. I've combed the list for references to this problem and
found nothing, but please forgive a short-sighted newbie if I've
overlooked something pertinent.

I'm using Vim 7 in three different places:
Mandrake Linux 9.2 (built from aap, with all patches applied)
Windows XP SP2 (from the self-installing executable)
Ubuntu Linux 6.06 (built from source tarball; no patches)

When editing files via FTP under Mandrake and Windows, I'm getting
some strage behavior that I didn't see in the 6.x series. As soon as I
connect, I get this error:

        ***netrw*** This security scheme is not implemented

However, the file loads normally once I hit Enter. I can edit the
file; yet I get the same error when I try to save. Under Mandrake, the
file actually _does_ save despite the error (though Vim behaves as if
it hasn't saved; I get the "No write since last change" warning, but
when I look at the file via other means I see that my changes are
there). Under Windows, the file doesn't save at all.

The Vim 7 build in Ubuntu behaves normally when editing via FTP,
without errors of any kind. So at least I know it _can_ be done. :)
Any ideas where my troubles are coming from? Incidentally, I have
version 100 (the latest--?) of netrw installed. Any and all guidance
will be very much appreciated; thanks in advance.
