Thanks for your reply Jason.
I have also tried putting it in a config file but it had the same result. I
ended up using the command-line just because I could be sure that it was
using correct parameter.
I did look at corkscrew, however I couldn't find a precompiled download. I
know I can compile it but I dont have a full cygwin install, and I am trying
to make it as simple for other people to follow.
I know I must be doing something really simply wrong, but I just can't think
what it is!
Thanks again.
