What do you mean "grep/search" for files? If you want to search for particular file *names*, Net::FTP can return a list of files and directories you can examine. If you want to search in the *contents* of files, you'll need to transfer the files to the client side first and then search through them. There's no way to get the FTP server to search for you, AFAIK. If this is what you're after, perhaps FTP isn't the right solution. You might consider ssh/scp if that's approriate for your environment. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
