TFTP, version 1.0b1
Copyright (c) 1998 G. S. Marzot. All rights reserved. This program

the same terms as Perl itself.
This is a perl module (completely implemented in perl) to provide the client functionality of the TFTP protocol as described in rfc783. A class, TFTP, is available which encapsulates the persistent aspects of a TFTP connection and from which the basic TFTP operations (get,put) can be initiated.

perl Makefile.PL make make test (* not implemented yet *) make install
This the first release of this module. It has been tested on Linux and Solaris (no Win32 yet but it should work). Please let me know of any problems or success.
The module name is provisional at this point as Net::TFTP is already reserved.
Bugs/Limitations:
Although this package does a pretty good job of adhering to the standard it may not be as robust as possible with erroneous servers (bad NetAscii encoding will not be detected, an infinite looping server can cause this client to loop as well (this would require an alarm based timeout I beleieve))
