Peter,

I tried this sequence on my system and it worked:

thor:~ wfs$ irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'net/ftp'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> ftp = Net::FTP.open('thor') do |ftp|
irb(main):003:1* ftp.login('user','password')
irb(main):004:1> ftp.putbinaryfile('sorted.txt','sortedXmit.txt')
irb(main):005:1> end

the file I used is quite small so the code completed quickly. and I 
verified that the file was transmited.

I am on Mac OS X 10.4.6 with ruby 1.8.4

Bill
