Changes for version 0.24 - 2014-06-30

  • Makefile.PL fix, only asks question if Net::HTTPTunel isn't present! Also now defaults to "N" instead of "Y" if module not present.
  • Fixed bug in supported(). Unsupported commands are followed with "*" in help. Most do "CMD*", but found some servers doing "CMD *" instead.
  • Fixed bug in 20-certificate.t where we were getting a false failure on nlst(). Fixed to explicitly check the response code instead of assuming an error when nothing was found. Fixed list() as well.
  • Same fix in 10-complex.t, even though tests designed to always return something.
  • Added transfer() to transfer files from one system to another system without the need to make a local copy of the file.
  • Added xtransfer() as well.
  • Added transfer & xtransfer validation to 10-complex.t to test things out.
  • Added a new environment variable default for *.t prompts.
  • Bug # 95411 - Patch provided by ian@iansramblings.com. Fixes hang issue when the command channel unexpectedly drops. Does this by implementing a timeout in response().
    • (Should I do this for data channel sysreads as well?)
