I know that most of my problems are relating to a lack of knowledge of sockets, but after reading everything I could about Appletalk and sockets, I still feel a bit lost. I want to transfer a file from one computer to another. Here is the info, changed to protect myself from lawsuits. MacPerl running computer A File resides on computer B Transfer file from B -> A. Computer A: Appletalk zone = Zone 1 Fileserver = toad Volume = Volume 1 Computer B: Appletalk zone = Zone 2 FileServer = bug Volume = Volume 2 User = Me Password = junk File = HD:Desktop Folder:temp I took a gander at the HTML MacPerl book, but couldn't get the example to work. Also I couldn't see where to supply the password. I really want to hard code this so I didn't try the Choose method. Any pointers? -- /\ /\ . /\____ _-_ / \ _/\ / \ /\ / \ /\ / \ / \ / \ /\/ \ / \_/\_/ Y \ /\/\/ \ u \/ \___/ \/ \ / \/ \ ----------------------------------v-------------------------------- Richard Christensen KC7JPQ Austin, TX richard@crl.com ***** Want to unsubscribe from this list? ***** Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to mac-perl-request@iis.ee.ethz.ch
