Re: NET::FTP ASCII mode not translating end-of-lines

I haven't had any problem with this and I've done it frequently. I just tried it from Windows XP to HP-UX and it worked fine.

If you are using cygwin Perl and the file is on a binmode mount, then a file with CR-LF will be sent with CR-CR-LF. What version of Perl are you using?

I could also imagine silly things, such as:

open IN, "<cnxsockh.h";
binmode IN;
$ftp->send(\*IN, "cnxsockh.h");
[download]

but I really doubt you would have done something like that.
