ssh allows you to log in remotely. scp is secure copy, man scp it replicates the cp command. you might be interested in Net::SCP (http://search.cpan.org) > Any suggestions and/or examples on how one attempt to accomplish > a task like this? If you want a more direct replacement of ftp then sftp might be closer to what you want. Net::SFTP is probably what you want. YOU may want to investigate how to generate keys with ssh-keygen and then installing it into the remote server in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys (those Americans cannot spell...). Look this up on the web there are hundreds of pages. ssh and scp are miles ahead of ftp in scripting terms, I can use ftp but it is horrible :-) Thanks Ken Foskey -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
