dwatson06 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am writing a script to grab a list of files within a directory.

Net::FTP works great for this, the only thing is my boss wants me to use SSL for transferring the log files. I found out about Net::SFTP on Google but I can't find this when I search Active State's packages. I downloaded it from CPAN but it seems to conflict with Active State's package for SSH.
Is there another way using Active Perl to create a SSL/FTP connection or do I need to walk the chain of tweaking the SFTP files from CPAN to be compatible with Active Perl.
I tried searching archives but was unsuccessful.
Thank you in advance,
Daniel
