My name is Chris, Hi!

I'm creating a backup program for my company and i'm interested in the
Net::FTP module from CPAN by Graham Barr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. 

My problem is that when i try to connect to an ftp server, it fails with this 
error message in $@ [  Net::FTP: Bad protocol 'tcp'  ]

Now... That error only occurs when i run it in the same (monolithic) backup 
perl script. 

I created a new script that ONLY makes a connection, calls the dir() method, 
and does nothing else and it worked just fine. 

The two connect calls between the test script and the backupscript are 
equivalent. 

They are both: 
my $ftp = Net::FTP->new($ftpHost, Debug => 1) || die "Unable to connect to 
$ftpHost [REASON: $@] {$!}\n";

And $! contains [  No such file or directory  ]... Now that doesn't make any 
sense at all to me...

My other question is, what does Debug => 1 do more than if it were at 0?
I don't see any difference...

If i can get this to work, things will be great!

Thanks for any help possible!

         -Chris

P.S. I have already email Graham Barr himself, but i've recieved no reply.
