Hey monks,
I am new at using Net::SFTP, I am just trying to get the basics down. I have varified that I can connect to this host and port number using a windows sftp client called "WinSCP3". I really can't figure out why I get this error when I try to connect to the host computer:

Can't set socket non-blocking: Bad file descriptor at C:/Perl/site/lib/Net/SSH/Perl.pm line 213, <GEN0> line 1.

here is my code:
use Net::SFTP; my $host = "cib-xcluster.biotec.usu.edu"; my %args = ( user => 'user', password => 'pass', debug => 0, protocol => '1,2', port => '22', ); print "connecting to $host . . .\n"; my $sftp = Net::SFTP->new($host, %args); print "Finished\n";

Any help would be really appreciated.
