I'm having a problem with NET::FTP. Please see code below. My problem seems to be with the login method call, the error I get is: Can't call method "login" on an undefined value at putcffile.pl line 56.
I know this is not a FW issue because I'm testing by ftp'ing to myself and I can login in with the credenials I'm using from the cmd line. OS is W2k. Could problem have something to do with salar referencing or quoting within NET::FTP? What about using IP # for host value, is that exceptable? Using debug, socket seems to be established okay from the call to "Net::FTP->new". Also, is the method below correct to ensure binary transmisson?
