Yep, that is it. Many many thanks to all who have helped with this issue - this is the first place I asked that there has actually been help. Next time it will be the first place I ask! What a great community!

Well, I guess I'll look at other options then, since Net::FTP won't work for this instance (though now I truely understand why it doesn't work). And really, when I think about it it all makes good sense. Many thanks and blessings again!
