In the Standard Addition dictionary, I see

You'll notice that the 'on server' parameter is not in brackets -
therefore
it is not optional. It's mandatory.
Actually, it's not. Well, maybe it is -- it depends on what the direct
parameter is. If you only give a volume name, then you need the "on
server". However, if you give a complete URL, then you don't. The
dictionary format can't really express this, so whichever way it is,
it's wrong. The comment could be better here, however.
As for the original problem, there is no error 80 documented anywhere
that I can find, and when I try it here I get error 5, which seems
fairly bogus, so this smells like a bug, but we'll do some more
testing.
