To do proper error checking after each put. I think you should check the return code explicitly and then return the error message from ftp. Here is how I would do it.

 
$ftp = Net::FTP->new("mysys",Port => 9021,Timeout => 20, Debug => 0);
$ftp->login("anonymous",'me@myself.com');

$ftp->put("$dir/$file1");

my $rtncode=$ftp->code;
if ($rtncode != 226 && $rtncode != 250)
   {
   my $msg=$ftp->message;
   print "FTP Failed: $msg\n";
   $ftp->quit;
   }

#do remainder of your puts here.

The '226' and the '250' are both return codes used in FTP. You can read more about them in the RFC for ftp.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
