Yeah, SFTP would work nice and it is supported by Perl... I wouldn't suggested using FTP and SSL though as I've spent a few weeks trying to figure out how do to that in Perl and so far it doesn't want to work properly... -------------------------------- An idea is not responsible for the people who believe in it...

I wouldn't suggested using FTP and SSL though as I've spent a few weeks trying to figure out how do to that in Perl and so far it doesn't want to work properly... Some months ago I had the same problem, but I was not able to get Net::SFTP work. So I wrote my own module. Few days ago I released a module called Net::FTPSSL, which use IO::Socket::SSL and Net::SSLeay::Handle for connections. :D Its methods are similar to Net::FTP, so you can easily convert a script from Net::FTP to Net::FTPSSL. If anyone wants give it a try, I'll be very happy! :D Cheers, Update:I didn't see Eyck post! :D ---------- kral (I apologise for my english!)	[reply]

You didn't see my module either;), you know, the one that uses IO::Socket::SSL and Net::SSLeay::Handle for connections and used to be called Net::FTPSSL, but the name was struck down multiple times by module-authors ML:( I took a peek at your module, and it seems like it's better thought-out, I'm thinking about dropping mine and moving to supporting yours.

There's no problem with transferring files securely using FTP, look at Net::Lite::FTP and Net::FTPSSL, both support TLS-protected FTP servers (proftpd, wzdftp, pureftpd and few others support this)	[reply]

I tried your module for transfer, and it gives me a couple of errors... Would you be able to look at those? Here's the code: `my $tlsftp=Net::Lite::FTP->new(); $tlsftp->open($ftphost, 2030); $tlsftp->user("$ftpuser"); $tlsftp->pass("$ftppass"); $tlsftp->cwd("$dir"); my @files=$tlsftp->nlst("$fname"); print "@files\n";` [download] Here's the output: OPEN.Received: 220 ftpssl.dstoutput.ca X2 WS_FTP Server 5.0.4 (3934600 +204) SRV Response: 220 ftpssl.dstoutput.ca X2 WS_FTP Server 5.0.4 (39346002 +04) RECV: 220 ftpssl.dstoutput.ca X2 WS_FTP Server 5.0.4 (3934600204) OPEN..Received: 220 ftpssl.dstoutput.ca X2 WS_FTP Server 5.0.4 (393460 +0204) Received: 234 SSL enabled and waiting for negotiation Prototype mismatch: sub Net::SSLeay::randomize (;$$) vs none at (eval +5) line 1.

Does it work on the station you're compiling it on? Tell you the truth as far as Win32 is concerned I only tested NT 4.0 and Win2k, and as far as 2exe, only par, and it worked ok. First look seems to suggest that your Net::SSLeay is not working properly.	[reply]
