Thanks to your help I have made some progress when using the ccc
switch. At least I am no longer getting error messages, although curl
does exit very quickly after doing _something_ with the message:

Total number of batches listed: 0

I can't find this anywhere in the documentation, so I'm not at all
sure where I am at this point. Trying to traverse the remote directory
structure gives me 550's and such, so I assume I am actually connected
and curl is simply exiting because there's nothing to do. I _believe_
I am operational.

Ok, one last question about this... since I am not stating that I want
to use sftp, which curl claims not to support in my version, is the
encryption ever turned on? Is --ftp-ssl--ccc also turning encryption
on during the login, as a side-effect? The manual is by no means clear
on this, and when I try things like --ftp-ssl-reqd then I immediately
get errors about the certificate.

I have a feeling that SFTP != FTP with CCC. I'll keep reading...
