You need to rewrite a shell script that does file transfer in Perl? Ok, Perl can do that. How are you trying to transfer the files? There are a lot of ways that would work -- ftp, scp, rsync, cp over NFS mount (or SMB mount, or DAV mount, or...), etc. We need to know what options to go with. If the shell script isn't very long, can you paste it in a message to the list? If it is long, can you paste a section with the parts you need to rewrite in Perl? Out of curiosity, if the shell script works, why rewrite it? I like Perl and all, but not to the point that every perfectly good script in some other language needs to be rewritten in Perl... I think he wants to call the shell script from a different perl script. qx( shell script which does ftp) right ?
