Well, then perhaps SmbClient would work for you: http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/dist/Filesys-SmbClient I have not tried it myself, but it looks like it is a wrapper around libsmbclient.so, which knows how to talk to Windows Shares. You would share a portion of your windows filesystem and the remote end could talk to it via SMB, allowing you copy files across the network.
And I have not looked at this in a long time, but at one point " Microsoft Windows Services for UNIX" also offered means to bring Unix and Windows closer together (NFS was part of the package at one point).

The problem we've run into using sftp is that we need to have an sftp server running on the target machine. Management are keen on saving money, but also have the fixated paradigm that server products have to be cost money, i.e., have some company behind them for support. There is allowance made for in-house code (a la Perl), so if there is a way of using windows natively for file-transfer operations by way of Perl code, that would be optimal. _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
