LPM: Net::FTP question

[John Gibson]

Hello all,

I am having a problem with a program that mirrors an ftp site. I am using the
Net::FTP module but I keep running into these timeout situations. Does any one
know how to recover from these timeouts. It keeps dieing on me and I do not
get a chance to resume the get of that file. If there was a way I could short
circuit the timeout so that it did not die and just returned with a error code
that would suffice. Thanks in advance for any help.

Error message:
DEBUG: (main::125)                    Checking for SRPMS/kernel-2.4.18-10.src.rpm

Pinky, are you pondering what I am pondering?
I think so Brain, poit, but where do you stick the feather and call it
macaroni?
