Verify FTP success, prior to file deletion

NOTE: I cannot use the Net::FTP module, because I am not
allowed to download any software to this production system.

How can I ensure the files are successfully ftp'ed to the $webserver prior to deleting the files?

Thanks,

David

Here is my ftp & delete code:

`ftp -i -n $webserver << 'EOF'
user $username $passwd
cd $destdir
lcd $logdir
mput @delFiles
quit
EOF`;

foreach $delfile (@delFiles)
{
unlink $delfile || die "could not delete $delfile $!\n";
}

Net::FTP is a standard module. It should already be installed.

I wish you were right.

The version of Solaris we have, comes with Perl 5.00503, which
does not contain Net::FTP.

Thanks

I guess you can just do a LIST and see if your file is there. If not, the transfer wasn't successful (although, that being the case, it probably should have been reported as a failure by the FTP server).
