Re^3: Net::FTP failure

The server doesn't implement a 'put' command, the client does.
The supported() method is for checking what RAW commands the server supports.

Things like these:

The following commands are implemented.
   USER    EPRT    STRU    ALLO    DELE    SYST    RMD     MDTM
   PASS    EPSV    MODE    REST    CWD     STAT    PWD     PROT
   QUIT    LPRT    RETR    RNFR    LIST    HELP    CDUP    PBSZ
   PORT    LPSV    STOR    RNTO    NLST    NOOP    STOU    AUTH
   PASV    TYPE    APPE    ABOR    SITE    MKD     SIZE

Let me update:

To be more specific and make more sense, the supported() method checks if the server supports the actual *raw* command. See this link: FTP Command Aliases

1. D'oh - you are quite right - was so carried away by the error message. Questions 2 & 3 are still worth answering, though?	[reply]

Well, the 502 Illegal PORT Command error is obviously holding up the data-connection portion of the FTP session. Your script is telling the server to send data from its FTP data-port (20 I assume) to your client's TCP port 53155. FYI, the Syntax of the PORT command: h1, h2, h3, h4, p1, p2. EG: Calculation of the local socket-port is done like this: p1256+p2 = (207256)+163 = 53155. It could be a privileged/restricted ports issue -- Though that would give a 'permission denied' error (I would have thought). For the record, 99% of all FTP data-connections are NAT/Firewall/socket-binding issues. Heh. You didn't state whether you were actually able to upload/download successfully via your system ftp program either. Google is good for FTP connection flow-charts etc...	[reply]


No such thing as a small change
