Hi,
I would try using a URL instead of separate host/user/path parameters, e.g.:
set myurl to "ftp://" & loginName & ":@" & the_host & "/" & my_path
fetch alias "Users:me:Downloads:" url myurlDoes that work?
Thanks,
Jim Matthews

Hello!
I've successfully integrated my mac's keychain with Fetch when I run a command such as:
set tWindow to make new transfer window at beginning with properties {hostname:the_host, username:loginName, initial folder:"/public_html/"}
so that I don't have to have my password in plaintext. However, when I try it using:
fetch alias "Users:me:Downloads:" host the_host user loginName path my_path
it will only work if I include my password in plaintext. Is there anyway around this or does the keychain only work in conjunction with the set tWindow command?
Thanks so much,
Eric
