Perl 5.6.1 on Solaris 9

[alfie002]

Dear all,

I developed some perl scripts using the FTP.pm for a number of Solaris, admittly in advance of receipt of the solaris boxes. I tried to run the scripts, which call the FTP.pm module, and I have discovered these platforms do not have the FTP.pm module include as part of the perl distribution. It may be certain perl modules have been removed for security reasons, don't know as I do not have another box to compare them with.

So, does anyone know if FTP.pm ships with the 5.6.1. perl release on solaris. I'd be surprised if it didn't.

Thanks in advance

Alf

Why not just install them?

$ > perl -MCPAN -e shell
[b][u]cpan>[/u][/b] install Net::FTP
