Re: Occasional Crashes in Net::FTP

Hi again.

With the help of the truly amazing CPAN module, I've upgraded to perl 5.6.0
and the most recent libnet and LWP modules.  Since the upgrade, I've had no
cases of instability like I was experiencing before.

Mr. Barr, keep up the good code!  Thanks again,
kevin
