There's a C-based tool that already does this job called rsync. The only requirements you have is that rsync must be installed on both machines and rsh or ssh must also be installed. rsync over ssh is infinitely more useful than a perlified ftp client. Check it out. As far as perl API goes, just check out the man pages/help docs. The perl documentation is QUITE extensive. You should be able to find it. -- Chad Walstrom <chewie at wookimus.net> | a.k.a. ^chewie http://www.wookimus.net/ | s.k.a. gunnarr -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
