Sean:

I had all sorts of problems with this on NT. Works great on Unix. To FTP to
NT:
Needs Microsoft IIS (Option Pack?) installed.
Once this is set up, the following changes need to be made:
q Start up the Microsoft Management Console - Start, Programs, Windows NT
4.0 Option Pack, Microsoft Internet Information Server, Internet Service
Manager.
q Right click on Default FTP Site and select Properties
q Click on the Home Directory tab
q Make sure "Write" is checked. 
q Change the Local Path to whatever directory is needed.
q Click on Apply, and exit.

The local path specified above is accessed as "\".

HI Sean,

I haven't worked with this module, but from my experiences using the FTP
protocol, I am wondering whether this is transmitting in text mode or
binary.  You might want to check the documentation for a mode parameter to
the get command, or mode attribute for the Net::FTP object.
