I recently changed ISP and I'm finding a problem getting sitecopy to 
work. It might be that I can't delete files on the remote server using 
sitecopy. The following example is after performing a sitecopy --init 
followed by a sitecopy --fetch.

sitecopy: Fetch completed successfully.
axis@nick:/usr/intranet/webpages/zen_mirror/gallery/webcam$ sitecopy 
--show-progress --update zen_tbird6
sitecopy: Updating site `zen_tbird6' (on ftp.ripple.myzen.co.uk in 
www/tbird6/)
Creating 060502/01/: failed:
550 Can't create directory: File exists
Creating 060502/02/: failed:
550 Can't create directory: File exists
Creating 060502/08/: failed:
550 Can't create directory: File exists
Creating 060502/09/: failed:

Creating 060502/07/: failed:

Creating 060502/07/tn/: failed:

The directories do exist on the remote server. If I delete directories 
locally that are  present on the remote server, then rerun --fetch and 
--update, there is no reference to them in the output, and they are not 
deleted on the remote server.

As a test I uploaded a test directory to the remote server, then ran 
sitecopy --fetch and --update. I would expect the remote test directory 
to be deleted. However it doesn't appear in the output at all and is not 
deleted.

I'm running sitecopy under Debian stable.
