Hi Monks, I am trying to write a script that compares two directories and these directories can be on the local or remote server. In the below I am able to connect and cd to the directory I want but the find function doesn't run. Any help? 
#Test FTP connections 1
$ftp1=Net::FTP->new($host1) or $ErrFlg=1;
  push @ERRORS, "Can't ftp to $host1: $!\n" if $ErrFlg;
  myerr() if $ErrFlg;
print "SUCCESS: Connected to $host1\n";

$ftp1->login($username1,$password1) or $ErrFlg=1;
  push @ERRORS, "Can't login to $host1: $!\n" if $ErrFlg;
  $ftp1->quit if $ErrFlg;
  myerr() if $ErrFlg; 
print "SUCCESS: Logged into $host1\n"; 

$ftp1->cwd("$dir1") or $ErrFlg=1; 
  push @ERRORS, "Can't cd to $dir1 $!\n" if $ErrFlg;
  myerr() if $ErrFlg;
  $ftp1->quit if $ErrFlg;

$maxDepth=$maxDepth1;  # Find function
find ({preprocess => \&preprocess, wanted => \&wanted,}, ".");

$ftp1->quit
