URL Access script to a remote volume

Hi scripters

I have been trying out URL Access Scripting to upload file to a remote volume using

set theURL to "ftp://" & theUserName & ":" & thepassword & "@" & "computerName.local" & "/" & theDirectory
upload this_file to theURL

This works fine for uploading to theUserName's home directory on the remote computer but I cannot figure out how to upload to the Applications folder which is what I would like to do.
i.e. the script will work for theDirectory of "Documents/" which is in the home folder but not for "Applications/" at the root level.
Am I missing something simple or it just not designed to work that way?

I have noticed in the past that there has been criticism of URL Access Scripting and various curl scripts seem to be preferred. Can anyone give me reasons for this?

John
