Damn this takes forever...

1. Edit script via ssh session to old server.
2. Copy script from old server to my machine via Samba and windows explorer.
3. ftp script to new server.
4. log on to new servers admin pages to set permissions (toying with ftp client eliminates this step...wish I would have seen the option earlier).
5. log on to MY admin pages to test script.
6. if failure, pour over code again and repeat steps.

I really need to get an ssh account on the new server. It is taking way too long to debug small little errors that could easily be found if I had a shell account. Two scripts took me 2.5 hours tonight, and it should have only taken me about 30 minutes tops. I still have the harder ones to play with and not only do I have this connection issue to play with, but I still have to figure out some specifics on them. I think if I do it right, I can merge half the scrips, but that means more work, which means more debugging... Oh well.
