Hi all,

I am working on a few scripts to automate file transfers through FTP. So far, I used Net::FTP and everything was fine. Now, the file I am working on right now is being transferred over FTP/SSL (I believe it's the same as SFTP).
The problem is that the transfer should be in passive mode, and I do not see pasv() method in the description of Net::SFTP.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Maybe I should use some other module to do the task? Any information is appreciated...

 

UPDATE: After being briefly exposed to a sunlight of wisdom by some esteemed monks, I realize that my case does not involve SFTP, just FTP with SSL. However, I am still unable to find the right module/method to implement the required functionality...
