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.
