Re: Net::FTP corrupting files or timing problem

Hi all,
   Thanks a lot for all the advice. I offer no excuse for not 
putting in those 'or die' statements. I'll try to see what 
happens after that.

   As to using Net::FTP::AutoReconnect, my hands are tied by 
the 'corporate standards', blah, blah..
'Corporate Roadblocks' is what I call it!
So, if I find that the connection fails often, then I'll 
have to write some 'reconnect' code myself.

   I already have the mode set to 'binary' as originally I 
had the skipped this one and all packets bigger than 1KB got 
corrupted :)

   We have only Windows in our company. I don't know how to 
read parameters from the file which I am using to determine 
my folder locations, etc., using the DOS commands. That's 
why I wrote up all the system calls within Perl.


Thanks and regards

Sriram
