Taking your suggestion, I took permissions out of the equation and just did an $sftp-ls() and print to the log what it found there and it's not even reading that. 
my $sftp = Net::SFTP::Foreign->new(host =>$host, password => $password
+, user => $username, ssh_cmd => 'ssh', more => [-v], port=>22); # or 
+die "Cannot connect to $@";                     
warn( "#######################  Connected  #######################\n")
+;

#$sftp->put("file.txt", "file.txt", copy_perm => 0);#  or die "Cannot 
+connect to $@";                                                      
+                                                
my @files = $sftp->ls();

foreach my $f ( @files )
{
    foreach my $file_ref ( @{$f} )
    {
        print "Found file: " . $file_ref->{'filename'} . "<br>\n";
    }
}

I do agree that ENV vars do have something to do with this, but haven't seen anything here or off of a google search to tell me which ones it would be. Again thank you for your suggestions.
