in thread Net::FTP is NEVER successful

$ftp->cwd(...) tries to change directories on the remote system, not on the local system. To change directories on the local system, you would just use chdir.

    Thanks a lot. I misunderstood what the code meant. So I think this is getting close to solving my problem.

    I wonder if I got the correct address when I set up the config file with

    cpan> o conf init

    My urllist contains the address ftp://ftp.perl.org/. Maybe it should be ftp://ftp.perl.org/pub/CPAN/??
