ftp file transfer with acknowledgement

Nalina has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Can any one tell me how to do ftp file transfer with an acknowledgement from server.

I am trying to transfer a file from client to the server. I need an acknowledgement from server after transfering the file. I also need to get the size of the transfered file on the server.

Any sample script will be of great Help

Thanks in advance

FTP servers always acknowledge a successful file transfer by sending a response numbered in the 200s. Net::FTP's `put` returns an error code. I'm not sure if it's true/false, or if it's the errorcode from the server (in which case you'd have to look for `defined($rv) && $rv >= 200 && $rv < 300`).	[reply] [d/l] [select]
