(For example, HTTP works by having your browser open a socket to the remote machine and sending a request; then the web server on the remote machine cooperates by sending back the requested data.)</p> <p>The easiest solution in this case is probably to create the configuration file locally, and then upload it to the remote server with <strong>Net::FTP</strong>.</p> Wed, 08 May 2002 14:49:48 +0000 Wil comment 1108519 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
