Sir
Local cwd defaults to pwd and does not allow directory change
We try to use Net::xFTP to help us simulate few protocols that we are using based on metadata from our database. We try to have the same code for all protocols.
Some FTP sites are actually local directories so we would like the $ftp-cwd(directory) to translate to 'cd directory'
Unfortunately when I issue:
$ftp->cwd( $data{ FTP_DIR } )
Where $data{ FTP_DIR } is clearly my desired directory
That does NOT change the working directory at all and I am still where I used to be, so when I issue:
$DIR = $ftp->ls();
I see my execution directory rather than the data directory that I want.
