Hello,
    I am trying to design a set of shell/perl scripts to generate and 
automatically distribute html files to a bunch of sites.  Basically it 
involves us uploading pages once a day to various sites.  It's not a mirror 
because each site gets a slightly different page.

    I was wondering if anyone knew of a good way of uploading via FTP to a 
foreign site.  I can write this into the perl script, but if there is 
something robust that is already around I'd rather use that.

I need to be able to give a directory or list of files, a sitename, a path, 
a username, and a password to the program and have it FTP all the files to 
the foreign location.  It needs to recognize a failed transfer and try back 
a set number of times.  If it fails beyond this I need the ability to send 
an Email or run an external program.

If anyone can help me out I'd really appreciate it.

-Terry
