Re: Net::FTP Problem

[Malach]

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Net::FTP;

$ftp = Net::FTP->new("host.name");
$ftp->login("user","password");
@data=$ftp->ls("-Rla");
$ftp->quit;

foreach $line (@data)
        {
        print $line."\n";
        }

From there, it's just text parsing......

Are these switches ("-Rla") implemented the same in all FTP servers? There's like a billion servers out there, and not all of them are totally standards compliant.

If most of them do use these switches correctly, this is an excellent way to recurse (IMHO). If not, you may need to look a little harder.
