Looking for a file transfer module NOT ftp

[Screwdriver13@hotmail.com]

Hello,

I'm looking for a module to perform file transfer from one machine to
another. This will be running on Windows machines, multiple windows xp
machines to a windows 2003 server. I don't want to use ftp or windows
file shares. Is there a module that can do this?

Thanks,
Joe

Hi Joe,

Why not FTP for the File Transfer Protocol?

What Protocol do you want to use?

Seriously,

Eric

Is a person supposed to be pushing buttons for this, or are you trying to
automate a process? I'm thinking HTTP file upload/download, if your server
has a webserver.

How about File::Copy, using UNC names?

Another option is to send the file(s) via client/server socket connections
built with IO::Socket.

You may want to consider puTTY which provides a Win32 `secure copy`
to keep file info/cred's from going cleartext. See the Windows link
on the OpenSSH page.
