NET::FTP

I am using 5.6

Using PPM I can not find NET::FTP all that are listed are:

==> NET::FTP::Common

==> NET::FTP::SHELL

==> NET::FTP::BLAT

==> NET::TFTP

Is NET::FTP only available on perl 5.8? Or should I be able to just
grab the module from somewhere and place it in the correct folder? I am
only using the default repositories in PPM.

Thanks

Odd. Have you seen this?

Generally, that doesn't work. I'm not sure whether it might work for
Net::FTP, but it's probably better to use the PPM, if you can. You may
need to switch to a more recent version. Good luck with it!
