When I am not in a file that I can write to, the error message says that
it can't open the target file. This error said that I could not open the
file on the host (master). With the additional information about
"permission denied" it seemed clear where the problem was. I'll try it
again, although I got the package I wanted from a Hamm CD.

Thanks,
