Yes, it is possible to transfer files from one machine to another using Perl. What exactly do you mean as a 'webfolder', though, I'm not sure.

You will most likely need a module. If you take a look at CPAN, you will find Net::FTP and Net::TFTP might do what you require, amongst many others.

If you can be a bit clearer in your definition of 'webfolder' and what kind of file you want to transfer and from where the current file is stored, then we will be more able to give you a more definitive answer.

Hope this helps.
