Help with FTP Monitoring Using Perl

Hi,

Can anyone help me to start a monitoring script in perl of a FTP server.

Why perl? When a specified tool, this often signals that the project is homework/school based.

Secondly, what are you trying to monitor for?
Are you trying to check for any files, a specific file, if the site is "up"?

hi,

its my home based work i want to get the various data of the ftp server and if u could provide with gud reference where to start so that i can learn and do it.
