I firmly believe you when you say it works with your FTP server -- it should work.

I set the timeout to 500 seconds, and it still timed out -- so I'm thinking the problem is something related to my installation of Net::FTP. I'm going to attempt reinstall and try to answer some of the questions differently -- any suggestions on which to answer, which way to answer them, or am I headed off in the wrong direction altogether?

UPDATE

I just did a reinstall on Net::FTP, and that has apparently been the whole problem. Thanks to all three of you for the patience you've shown with me -- FTP is something I'm a stranger to, but not quite so much any more. :)
