OK, I'm stumped.

I've got a short routine that logs onto a ftp server using Net::ftp from a Win98 box and uploads an html file. All goes well, except that only about 3/4 of the file actually makes it.

The code is quite simple: 
my $ftp = Net::FTP->new($destserv) or die "error connecting\n";
$ftp->login($destuser,$destpass);
$ftp->cwd('/path/to/proper/directory');
$ftp->put($output_file) or die "error uploading\n";
$ftp->quit();

The cut-off is always at the same point, so I'm guessing I'm missing some parameter or other. I would have thought that a failure to complete the upload would trigger the error message I specified via die, but it does not. Can anyone point me towards a solution? Thanks for your time.
