Re: Weird Net::FTPSSL error

This is almost always caused by NAT issues with the control channel (which Passive Mode gets around, which is default in Net::FTPSSL), or the FTP server itself is replying back with an incorrect passive mode IP address.

In your new() constructor, try setting OverridePASV => x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the same as the IP you connect initially to.

If that doesn't work, fire up tcpdump or Wireshark and have a look at what traffic you see when you attempt to connect. Post the results of that back here if you don't understand them.

Thanks for the reply. Tried that, but to no avail :( I just get: connect: Connection refused at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.20/Net/SSLeay/Handle.pm line 229. I did a bit more research, and found out I can do it via Curl: `curl -T /home/user/public_html/cgi-bin/hotels/admin/com_spots.csv ftp://dest-server.org/public_html/cgi-bin/links/admin/IMPORT/ --user user:pass` Tested that out, and works a treat :) Thanks for trying to help though!

So you aren't using FTP over SSL/TLS after all (there are no SSL/TLS options in your curl usage). If you still want to use Perl then switch to Net::FTP.	[reply]
