Re: Connecting to other computer in LAN via PERL

Which operating system runs on the machine you are trying to reach?

Typically, if that is Windows, you just have to share some drawer there and mount it on your local machine.

If it is some kind of Unix, then probably the easiest option is to install and run a SSH server there and use some SSH/SCP/SFTP/rsync Perl module to access it.

Thanks Corion,MidLifeXis,salva for replying to this thread, I'll just install a ProFTPD software in every computer here. And start building a Perl script for quick and easy transferring files and monitoring the FTP server. Thanks again!	[reply]

Then, ensure you have SSL enabled on the servers and that you are using a FTPS client (module). Otherwise anybody on the same LAN would be able to see your data and capture your passwords.	[reply]
