soap sending files

VicBalta has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

HI I am just learning how to use soap in my perl programs. I want to make a program that will require transferring files from one computer to another. I was thinking about using soap to do this. I was looking on line and couldn't find to much on it. I found some information on message attachments. If any one knows any information on this or where i could find more I would appreciate it Thanks Victor

Have you looked at the SOaP tutorial at: `http://orgwis.gmd.de/projects/Coins/Tutorial-1.0.html#6` [download] I haven't used SOaP all that much, but I did need it a while ago and used this tutorial I think for assistance.	[reply] [d/l]

If you need to Transfer Files, you'll probably have better luck with Net::FTP. But if you are looking for an excuse to use SOAP... there is an industrial-strength CPAN module and something here which looked maybe more beginner-friendly. Good luck!	[reply]

thanks faure, so you think that net::ftp would be my best bet. The way I want to set it up is that I can have one box delivery the files to all the other machines. So when I want to update the files I just have to run that program on one machine. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated on how to set it up. Thanks	[reply]
