+### Please describe the problem.
+
+Trying to copy annexed files to an lfs server via the configured http schemed url results in an error of this form:
+
+[[!format sh """

+
+From what I can see, there is no way to work around this. Unlike, for example, the S3 special remotes, initremote doesn't take a protocol=http setting.
+
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+[[!format sh """
+$ git-annex initremote lfsonly type=git-lfs encryption=none url=http://computer-ubul.local:5965/
