I see. I know 'expect' from other programming-languages and I really understand,
that it is not easy to handle ... ;)

I have tried it and get a "UnsupportedBackendScheme" error. (see the attached
log). I have tried 'ssh', 'sftp' and 'scp' as the protocol. I used the vars
'TARGET_USER' and 'TARGET_PASS' to set user and password in the config-file.
My current workaround is to change line 287 in sshbackend.py (current
testing-version) to:
mkdir_commands += ["cd \"%s\"" % (d)]
It's a little bit (or a little bit more ;)) quick'n dirty, but it works for me.
Thanks for your work!!
