Hi Dan, I was trying to figure something like this a few months ago. Needed to move a file to sub directory in the FTP server. All in Net::FTP.
Decided it wasn't worth figuring out. Instead I retrieved the file locally, deleted the file on the server, cwd to the proper directory and then put it the file up to the server.
