I'm not sure if HEAD would work.
Basically, I'm trying to read a directory's files.
After I confirm a file exists and doesn't have zero
size I check that it has the appropriate extension
for the directory then I add the directory address,
file name and extension to a table in our database.
It used to be easy when I was using php on a single
server system (which is what I'm migrating from.) Now
that I am using a two server system it's a little tricker.
Thanks,

Hello All,
I've got a two server platform one a static server for files and
runs the mysql server
and the other runs mod_perl. I'm trying to figure out the fastest way
to get info on directories
and files from the static server to the mod_perl server. Right now
I'm
using Net::FTP which
is really slow, especially when they're a lot of files.
Unfortunately,
I need to check the file info
quite frequently. I was wondering if anyone knew what was the fast
way
to get this info, LDAP,
SSH, etc?
Wouldn't HTTP HEAD request achieve this fairly nicely ?
I am not sure you have described the actual problem you are trying to
solve.
Why is that information needed and how is it being used?
