in reply to Connecting to other computer in LAN via PERL

You will need some server-side support for that -- without a server running on the computer you want to connect to that accepts file transfers, you're out of luck.

If there's an SSH server running, you may be able to use scp or SFTP; take a look at Net::SCP and Net::SFTP.

    Hi AppleFritter, Yes you're correct first i use IO::Socket to create a server to other computer like a trojan and then i create a client to connect to the server. But i want to build a perl script that can connect to other computers in LAN & transfer/send any files and i think you're right this is out of luck. The only ports are open is 23,80,139 ....
