Jimmy, The script works perfectly. I am not concerned with the ftp as the server is protected in a DMZ and address locked down to our customer. I modifed the script for my needs. I appreciate your help. I was in brain lock on how to do this.
Thanks, Craig >>> "James Schappet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 06/09/03 10:59AM >>> Now with sample code in-hand. Don't use FTP. FTP is insecure and should not be used. Take a look at using SSH/SCP. There are perl modules for SCP, but I think that would be over kill a simple shell or perl script would do.

If there are files in the directory, those files need to be ftp'ed to a server and then deleted from the sending server. This is an automated incoming mailbox for EDI and the data needs to be transfered when it arrives. This is a hot task so any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Craig A.
