RE: FTP Help needed

The official FTP protocol is RFC959.  A text version is available here:

http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc959.html

Specifically, the message on error 550 reads:

   550 Requested action not taken.
       File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access).

>From this and some other reading I've done, this means (if you spelled the
name correctly) that you probably don't have authority to the file.  Check
the authorities on the two savefiles and see if they match.
