I'm trying to locate an SFTP install for Windows (32-bit) but I can't seem to
find anything in the PPM for some reason. Does anyone have any recommendations
on how to get this for Windows?

Not sure if you are going to get much more of a response Peter - this mail list
seems pretty dead.
As far as I know, it's not an easy task to actually get SFTP client
functionality in Perl. I've had plenty of issues over the years, that I gave
up trying to find a Perl module that will do what
I had much the same experience.
I've used both PSFTP.exe from Putty and sftp.exe from Cygwin.
In both cases I write a batch file and execute the exe via a system call.
$RUNSTRING = $main::sftpbin -b $SFTP_BATCH_FILE $SFTPLOGIN $TEMPLOG;
## which translates to
##'c:\cygwin\bin\sftp -b
That’s fine. I was looking for a tidy Perl module, but this will work too.
Thanks folks.

That is pretty much the approach I have taken as well. In my instance, the
batch is written dynamically, based on the required process (read from an INI
file) and the files found either remotely or locally (based on wildcard
searches).
The command that we call looks like:
$command = echo
Off on another tangent, but it seems not much has changed over the years:

Math::Pari fails to install with strawberry with 5.20 on x64 - never had
the time to find out why.
I'm sure if you ask sisyphus nicely he'll try and put it up on
