Re: Re: ftp directories

I thought of that, but haven't been able to find a way to run it over the ftp connection.

if i run it locally (@list = stat(FILEHANDLE);)its gonna give me an error because the file is on the remort server. i would have to run it like @list = stat($ftp->get($filename)); .. but that would cause me to retrieve the file, not what i am looking for.

According the the Net:FTP docs Stat is the FTP stat command, which returns the server status, not of a specific file. (and its not implimented yet from what i can tell)

>its gonna give me an error because the file is on the remort server. Yes, I realized that too late. Could you try a telnet session to each box instead of FTP? update: Assuming that's not feasible, you could do `$ftp->cwd($path,$filename)` If that succeeds, delete it.	[reply]
