Hi again, Sorry to bother your with all this, but I'm learning to use Perl for FTP and such. I'm interested in writing code that contacts a webserver and finds out what kind of OS the webserver is running on, and what kind of webserver it is. Is there are way to do this? Net::FTP apparently doesn't support the FTP commands to do it.
