Hi!

UPDATE: I recommend you go with the examples noted above, rather than on the code below, which is untested. In paticular, I'm unable to test the assertion that rput works on *NIX in the manner I mention below.

If you look at the docs for Net::FTP::Recursive, they do a pretty good job of explaining things from a Perl perspective. Here's an example of how the code might go, based on the docs for the module in question:

# WARNING:  Untested code!
use strict;
use warnings;
use Net::FTP::Recursive;

my $ftp = Net::FTP::Recursive->new("some.host.name", Debug => 0);
$ftp->login("anonymous",'me@here.there');

#Change the directory in the below command 
# to the root of the directories you wish
# to upload to
$ftp->cwd('/pub');

# You must have your script in the proper
# local directory; this module automatically 
# uploads it's working directory
chdir('/home/user/data_to_upload');

# According to docs, rput should "just work" 
# on Unix-like systems
$ftp->rput(); 
$ftp->quit();

Unless I'm missing something? I hope that works for you; I don't have an FTP site here I can test with.
