I need to be able to do file transfers via SFTP from Perl (ActiveState) in a Windows environment but I am having trouble finding a suitable Perl module that works. I have tried installing Net::SFTP::Foreign via ppm but it apparently relies on having an ssh command that it can call to establish a connection to start with. I have not been able to find a Windows ssh command that can be used as a batch command (as opposed to a GUI). I tried installing LWP::Protocol::sftp but it seems to end up calling the above module and so still needs an ssh command. I also tried to manually install Net:FTPSSL (and its dependants IO::Socket:SSL and Net::SSLeay), none of which seem to be available on ActiveState, but this requires a "make", a command which Windows doesn't seem to have (I usually work in Unix). Can anyone suggest how to get one of the above options to work in Windows? Or a different option?
