in reply to dereference a glob

Ok, so that just tells you that you've got a Net::FTP::A object. This is the data connection object that handles an ASCII file transfer. You shouldn't ever have to worry about that as Net::FTP handles all the interaction with this object. Exactly what error are you seeing? And what does your code look like?

    I am trying to get a file from a ftp server. This is the error I am recieving when doing the get. I am able to log into the ftp server and cwd to the correct directory without any problems.

    Can't locate object method "new" via package "Net::FTP::A" at IO/Socket.pm line 162.

      I went to Super Search and put "new Net::FTP::A" (without the quotes) into the "Words in Text:" box, clicked Submit, and had some reasonable answers in seconds. (:
