Hi,

Thanks for the responses.

1. Increasing the timeout just makes the call wait a longer or shorter duration before it borks.
2. Commenting PASV out does nothing.
3. The debug just prints out the FTP conversation, and fails with my die() message.
4. The script fails at put() each and every time.


When I check the FTP server, I see that it creates the file for me, but it just sits at 0kb until the session terminates. I've found some nice Net::FTP code here abouts (better error handling than I have), and will also try a solution that I understand...watching packets on the wire to see what's cutting on the network.

I suspected a possible permission error, but read/write is set on the virtual folder, and a bash FTP works fine. That said, it may be time for a system() call to see if I get a similar error.
