Works

I downloaded the libnet bundle from CPAN and followed the installation steps and I am good to go.

Thanks

That libnet package has nothing to do with Perl.

To install Perl modules or bundles you use CPAN (www.cpan.org). You'll need to download the libnet bundle from CPAN (http://search.cpan.org/~gbarr/libnet-1.19/), extract it, then do:

sun> perl Makefile.PL

sun> make

sun> make test

sun> make install

Hello

            I am using a SUN MicroSystem Sun Blade 2000 with Solaris 8, and Perl 5.005_03.

I want to ftp files from one system to other using Perl language.

I read on the perl book that the Net: :FTP is part of the libnet bundle.

I download the libnet bundle (libnet-1.02a-sol8-sparc-local.gz) from Sunfreeware.com.

1. I unzip the file using the gunzip command as follow:

# gunzip libnet-1.02a-sol8-sparc-local.gz

2. I loaded the bundle using the pkgadd command as follow:

            # pkgadd -d libnet-1.02a-sol8-sparc-local



            The following packages are available:

1         SMClibnet libnet (sparc) 1.0.2a

Select packages you wish to process : all

Using </usr/local> as the package base directory

.

.

.

Installation of <SMClibnet> was successful.

I wrote the following short perl script (test.pl) to test the net FTP.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

# created by Oscar

#

use Net: : FTP;

print ("testing the FTP procedure\n");

I received the following error message:

Can't locate Net/FTP.pm in @INC @INC contains:

/usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris (/usr/perl5/5.00503

/usr/perl5/site_perl/5.005/sun4-solaris /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.005 . )

at ./test.pl line 5.

BEGIN failed - compilation aborted at ./test.pl line 5.

How can I get the FTP.pm on my system?

Did is do something wrong?
