When moveTo() is called on the source FileObject, passing it the destination FileObject -which refers to the remote file, I receive an 553 Exception. This should not be the case, indeed the permissions do allow for writes.
Exception: Exception in thread "main" org.apache.commons.vfs.FileSystemException: Could not copy "file:///root/watchit/test-file" to "ftp://mss:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/test". at org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.AbstractFileObject.copyFrom(AbstractFileObject.java:933) at org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.AbstractFileObject.moveTo(AbstractFileObject.java:995) at Move.main(Move.java:16) Caused by: org.apache.commons.vfs.FileSystemException: Could not write to "ftp://mss:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/test". at org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.AbstractFileObject.getOutputStream(AbstractFileObject.java:1267) at org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.DefaultFileContent.getOutputStream(DefaultFileContent.java:416) at org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.DefaultFileContent.getOutputStream(DefaultFileContent.java:399) at org.apache.commons.vfs.FileUtil.copyContent(FileUtil.java:100) at org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.AbstractFileObject.copyFrom(AbstractFileObject.java:924) ... 2 more Caused by: org.apache.commons.vfs.FileSystemException: Cant open output connection for file "ftp://mss:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/test".

Any idea as to why VFS gives me a 553 when I clearly have permissions?
