in reply to Net::FTP force IPV4

Per the documentation:

Domain - Domain to use, i.e. AF_INET or AF_INET6. This argument will be passed to the IO::Socket super class. This can be used to enforce IPv4 even with IO::Socket::IP which would default to IPv6. Family is accepted as alternative name for Domain.

So, something like:

my $ftp = Net::FTP->new ('ftp.foo.com', Domain => AF_INET);

      You need to import AF_INET:

      use IO::Socket qw(AF_INET);
