Revered Monks,

I am trying to use Net::Ftp module to connect to another UNIX machine. But i dont see any thing actually happening when i use this module and also i do get the below error...

require 5.6.1;
use Net::FTP;
my $ftp = Net::FTP->new('ostrich',Debug=>1,Passive=>1) or die "not con
+nected $!";
print "connected successfully\n";

[download]
The error is 
not connected Invalid argument at - line 3.

[download]
Please throw some light on this
Update:-
The normal ftp (/usr/bin/ftp)in UNIX session works fine.

Update1:-

Recently i notice that it doesnt recognise the hostname. Is it any where i need to mention this hostname to be identified by the Net::Ftp modue?????Like Netrc file or somewhere???
