Re: Net::FTP.pm Blues

Dave,
Thank you very much for the information. $@ provided a bit more insight into the problem. Now I at least have another error to investigate. The STDOUT line came from an example I found on the net. I tried many different variations of code to get more information. My current error is...
Net::FTP Bad protocol 'tcp'
It seems that
perl -le 'print getprotobyname("tcp")'
is not returning a value. I am currently investigating it. Once again, thanks for getting me one step further.
Ken

You may want to check that your /etc/protocols and /etc/nsswitch.conf files are okay: `$ grep protocols /etc/nsswitch.conf protocols: files $ grep tcp /etc/protocols tcp 6 TCP # transmission control protocol` [download] Dave.	[reply] [d/l]
