Yes, 

Things are looking good.

Here's what I noted as a problem.  The 'R' option updates only the 
reference number -- it doesn't download anything.  The next
run should have been without the 'R'.

Yeah, This seems odd.  Jamu shouldn't have done anything, as file
was already in database with a inetref number.
