wait, I'm running into a problem still. I'm on my laptop, I want to 
'pull' from my archive at desertsol.com to a local mirror on my laptop:

7:14AM0quasar>tla archive-mirror address@hidden 
address@hidden
arch_archive_connect: attempt to connect to wrong mirror
  archive: address@hidden
  wanted mirror of: address@hidden
  got mirror of: address@hidden
7:23AM1quasar>tla archives
address@hidden
    /Users/kevin/arch/2005-home-MIRROR
address@hidden
    sftp://desertsol.com/data/archives/2005-home

I'm sure if I temporarily registered 
sftp://desertsol.com/data/archives/2005-home with its true name 
(address@hidden) and the local mirror with the name 
address@hidden it would work, but then I would 
need to un-register them, and register the local mirror with the name 
address@hidden to be able to do anything with it. I'd 
rather register them once. what am I missing now?
