Net::SFTP is built upon Net::SSH::Perl, which I must confess is a module that I spent the better part of two days trying and failing to get to work on Solaris 2.9. We eventually fell back upon using Expect::Simple. ()-() \"/ `	[reply]

This is off-topic, but... I'm confused. There's a Solaris 2? I thought that Solaris was in version 9.0. Okay, 2.8 could be a really old version, except I though that Solaris 6 came after SunOS 4, that there were no versions of Solaris before that. What am I missing? Is Solaris like Mozilla where there are two officially correct notions of what the current version number is (5.0 versus 1.x), or what? `for(unpack("C*",'GGGG?GGGG?O__\?WccW?{GCw?Wcc{?Wcc~?Wcc{?~cc' .'W?')){$j=$_-63;++$a;for$p(0..7){$h[$p][$a]=$j%2;$j/=2}}for$ p(0..7){for$a(1..45){$_=($h[$p-1][$a])?'#':' ';print}print$/}` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

After 2.6, Sun started number the OS 7 instead of 2.7...etc Here is a link to an FAQ that tells you just about everything you could ever want to know about Solaris http://soldc.sun.com/community/people/casperdik/solaris2.html	[reply]
