You have a Windows machine with a Perl interpreter (ActivePerl from
ActiveState for example).
You have FTP access to a Linux box with a Perl CGI script engine (typically,
the box where your website is hosted)
But you are very frustrated because you do not have a TELNET or a SSH access
to this box, it would be much more easy to zip or untar your files...
The solution we suggest you is to create two scripts, a CGI wich will run on
the server and a Perl script that will run locally in a command line window.
The local software will send commands to your CGI in an HTTP request, the
CGI will interpret the command and will return the output wich will be
displayed by the windows script.

Comments welcome!
