I found out this week that within our organization, FTP will be no longer allowed and that in its place, scp ( secure copy over SSH ) will take it's place. I have a couple of polling modules which use FTP to look for trigger files in specific locations on remote machines. I then ftp the data from these machines onto my Perl machine, process the files and generate internal emails. All this is handled by Perl.
From my understanding of scp, one has login rights to the remote machine and you login and work from there. At this point, I am lost in how one would handle what I am doing now using this new method of processing. Any suggestions and/or examples on how one attempt to accomplish a task like this? Thanks.
