This is a brilliant idea, Greg, particularly for having access to
private modules on the road.

1) It applies and compiles cleanly
2) installmgr continues to function with the standard protocolls.

Unfortunately when trying to use it I get the (username edited) debug
message attached below from installmgr. What I had done is I added a
line to my InstallMgr.conf:

SFTPSource=Home|backup|/home/<username>/.sword|||

"backup" is resolved in my /etc/hosts file to my NAS which is accessible
via ssh. /home/<username>/.sword is the path from /

Am I doing something wrong or is there something malfunctioning? I tried
also <username>@backup as servername
