Reason 1: portability: the intended target system may very well not have a
'cp' program or has a 'cp' program that does something else or uses a
different parameter format or or or ...
Reason 2: efficiency: it is way more expensive to fork a new process and
exec a program than to use Perl's build-in functions. Granted, in this
particular case, where the job includes potentially copying thousands of
files on the HD, it's a mute point.
But in general it is a better idea to use Perl in Perl program.

Because it's nice to have scripts which will work on any platform (or at
least as many platforms as possible)?

You will still need something that kicks of the Perl program initially
anyway. So why not leverage cron instead of writing a similar system
yourself.

Notes
=====

    - A line in the body of a post is considered to be original if it
      does *not* match the regular expression /^\s{0,3}(?:>|:|\S+>|\+\+)/.
    - All text after the last cut line (/^-- $/) in the body is
      considered to be the author's signature.
    - The scanner prefers the Reply-To: header over the From: header
      in determining the "real" email address and name.
    - Original Content Rating (OCR) is the ratio of the original content
      volume to the total body volume.
    - Find the News-Scan distribution on the CPAN!

Thanks ChrisO,

Thank you very very much.
This weekend I did some research on my own, and figured out that I 
should begin with XML-RPC.
BUT, there is still one open question. Where is SOAP and WSDL in all 
this? Can they be used also? I understand that with WSDL you can 
describe Web service, but WSDL is allways coming in context with SOAP 
and not with XML-RPC...

Anyhow, thanks again

Tom
