The permission flags for the remote object are available on the Attributes object on the 'a' slot You can use the S_IS* functions from Fcntl to check whether those flag are for a particular kind of object, for instance S_ISREG for files (similar to -f): Also, the ls method from Net::SFTP::Foreign allows you to read all the directory entries in one go, without requiring you to open the dir and looping with readdir: use strict; use warnings; use Net::SFTP::Foreign; use Fcntl ':mode'; my $remote_dir = "/tmp"; my $sftp = Net::SFTP::Foreign->new("host"); $sftp->error and print "SSH connection failed: " . $sftp->error . "\n"; my @files = $sftp->ls($remote_dir, wanted => sub { S_ISREG($_[1]->{a}- >perm) }); print "$_->{filename}\n" for @files; -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
