I am failing to successfully connect to my network through perl->cygwin.
Several scripts were working fine, now none work. No edits were made.
This fails while it worked just fine two days ago:
#!/c/usr/bin/perl -w
use Net::FTP;
$ftp = Net::FTP->new('somehost.com', Debug => 1, Timeout => 60 );
if ( ! defined $ftp ) {
print "failed\n";
print "report: $@\n";
exit;
}
It reports "Net::FTP: Timeout". It comes back instantly (NOT 60 secs), just
as it
does when I'm not even connected to the network.
ftp from the cygwin command line works fine
perl: new HTTP::request
also fails while by regular browsers still work
The thing I did around the time this happened was to remove TCP-IP->lan
adapter
and replace it (for another reason).
THings I've tried:
ftp from command line: OK
http from web browsers: OK
telnet somehost.com 80 (manual http GET): OK
ftp from AbsoluteFTP: OK
connect to network over dialup: NO CHANGE, problem still exists
reinstall perl, cygwin
completely removed TCP->IP from network setup, reboot, reinstall: NO CHANGE
Running WINMe, dell 4000 laptop, 3com lan card
Any debug tips? I'd really like to get my scripts back up and running and
I'm out
of things to try.
