Subject: ncftp 3.1.4 bookmark save problem
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

I just got the nearly complete cygwin setup this week (minus XFree86) and 
have noticed that ncftp is having a problem saving bookmarks.

My $HOME is /cygdrive/c/Document and Settings/stimpleton
(yes, with spaces, God damn Windows to hell)

It's not making a $HOME/.ncftp directory and fails even if I make one for 
it and do 'chmod 666 $HOME/.ncftp'

The error message I get is "Sorry, configuration information is not saved 
for this user."

I also tried to set $NCFTPDIR to something non-spacey like /cygdrive/c and 
it still fails to create bookmark info at that location. (as per the man 
page on environment variables that ncftp is supposed to use)

I'm running under Windows XP Pro SP1
