Hi there Monks!

I need to get some files from my server and save I copy of these files somewhere in a specific directory this code shows it perfectly what I need in order to get the files from my server, but where I tell the FTP where to save the downloaded files into a specific directory?

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w

use Net::FTP;

$hostname = 'remotehost.com';
$username = 'anonymous';
$password = 'myname@mydomain.com';

# Hardcode the directory and filename to get
$home = '/pub';
$filename = 'TESTFILE';

# Open the connection to the host
$ftp = Net::FTP->new($hostname);        # Construct object
$ftp->login($username, $password);      # Log in

$ftp->cwd($home),"\n";                  # Change directory
print $ftp->ls($home),"\n";        

# Now get the file and leave
$ftp->get($filename); 
$ftp->quit;

Thanks!!!
