$Id: README,v 1.4 2001/05/16 20:20:06 btrott Exp $ This is Net::SFTP, a module implementing a client for the Secure File Transfer Protocol. PREREQUISITES * Net::SSH::Perl (1.13 or greater) In particular, Net::SFTP requires the SSH2 support in Net::SSH::Perl; thus, during Net::SSH::Perl installation, you should choose that you wish to use SSH2 support (and SSH1 support as well, if you want that). INSTALLATION Net::SFTP installation is straightforward. If your cpan shell is set up, you should just be able to do % perl -MCPAN -e 'install Net::SFTP' If you don't like that, you can download the distribution; the latest version on CPAN can be found in ftp://ftp.cpan.org/pub/CPAN/authors/id/B/BT/BTROTT/ Download it, unpack it, then build it as per the usual: % perl Makefile.PL % make && make test Then install it: % make install SAMPLES Take a look at eg/psftp, an interactive SFTP shell using Net::SFTP, for some examples on using Net::SFTP and its various methods.
