Re: Using FTP Without any Modules

[turo]

blazar, maybe he wants to migrate from ksh to an oister shell :-P jejeje

anyway, i haven't sleept too much today, so for keeping me on, i decided to translate it:

#!/usr/bin/perl

# Give port or mention server name
my $ip='some.machine';

#User ID to login into remote server
my $user='anonymous';

#Password to login in remote server
my $pass='super-secret';

open (FTP, "|-", "/usr/bin/ftp -n");
print FTP <<EOF ;
open  $ip
quote user $user
quote pass $pass
lcd
bye
EOF
print "*$_\n" while (<FTP>);
close FTP;

hi

I got the following error when I run your code.

Too many arguments for open at fileconcat.pl line 70, near ""/usr/bin/
+ftp -n")"
Execution of fileconcat.pl aborted due to compilation errors.

You have an older version of Perl, you would do well to upgrade if you can.
