I would like to upload and download files to a Linux server from my Windows machine. So, I set out to write a little script that does just that. Uploading, it turns out, is no problem. I use an "opendir" statement to open the directory, then readdir to read its contents and then each file gets "put". This works and so, I thought, that's what I'll do for downloading files too. However, I don't seem to be able to open the remote directory. I get the message that the $dir cannot be opened ("Ik kan $dir niet openen!"). I added a snippet of code below.
Can anybody tell what is going on here and how I can fix this?
best,

...
#my $dir = $ftp->cwd("/home/ruben/journal/"); #this is wrong!
#the value of $dir is 1.
#alternative:
$ftp->cwd("/home/ruben/journal/"); #it now indicates, through $ftp->pwd(); that I am in "/home/ruben/journal/"
$dir = "/home/ruben/journal/";
opendir (IN, $dir) or die "ik kan $dir niet openen!";
my @files = readdir(IN);
foreach my $file(@files){
$ftp->get("$file");
}
$ftp->quit
