I was messing around with the CPAN the Perl world wide archive of resources earlier today and it was asking for the default location of ncftpget. By default this is no longer installed on CentOS so you will first need to install the EPEL repository and then install NCFTP using yum. Follow the directions below to install ncftp which includes ncftpput, ncftpget, ncftpbatch, ncftpspooler, and more.
Install NCFTP Using Yum On A CentOS Linux Server:
- Install EPEL Repository: If you do not already have the EPEL repo installed then issue the below command from a terminal window or shell.
- rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
This command may change a bit depending on the version of CentOS you have installed or the version of the EPEL that is available.**NOTE** The EPEL repository version may have been updated since this article was written so if 5.4 does not work then attempt to install 5.5, 5.6, etc. Thanks to L. Ramsey below for pointing out that the latest driver version as of 9/12/2010 was 5.4. - Install NCFTP Via Yum: Now install NCFTP using the yum package manager. If this is your first time installing something using the EPEL you will be prompted to import the EPEL GPG key as seen in the below example. The includes the entire output of installing ncftp using yum from a shell.
