SFTP with RSA

dexter29 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am in the process of trying to transfer a text file via sftp with RSA key to a remote server. This will be run on Windows. The key has already been generated. File transfer is manual at the moment. I have tried to install Net::SFTP and Net::SSH::Perl with no success. Can anyone provide any info on how I can go about this task or obtain a copy of these modules.

Net::SFTP is a CPAN module. You can get it by downloading the module from CPAN or by using the CPAN module to download and install it for you. Now things change if you're using Active State Perl. They use a different tool named ppm. An excellent resource on using modules is: Modules: How to Create, Install, and Use	[reply]
