Hi Todd Chester,

Everything is running on a local network. ... As the "administrator". I have remote access to both machines. ... One of the backup sets on Cobian is writing to the FTP server. ... This program I am working on now, is to rotate the FTP backup sets from Cobian.

So, do I understand correctly that you are connecting from the Windows machine to the Linux machine via Net::FTP to accomplish this? Why not simply run a script on the Linux machine directly and have it do its work locally?
