That got it, DOS2UNIX worked a treat.

Thanks to all for their help on this one.

Running it through dos2unix or using Dereks bit of vi wizardry should do the trick.  Unfortunately my broadband is down so I can't easily get the file off my MailScanner box to send you.

In order to create the file I copied from the web page and pasted it into a notepad document, saved it and then FTP'd onto the box, chmod'd the file and ran it. Does anyone have the file they could mail me over (offlist)to ensure that this is not this issue?


Many Thanks


Jeramy

If you cut and paste from windows into a terminal emulator session you may well have problems.  I've seen things pasted from windows before which look fine but just don't work.  You could try running the file through dos2unix that might help.

O/S is Redhat 9.0


/usr/bin/perl does exist and is executable.



Output of which perl = /usr/bin/perl

Information please.



What Operating system are you running? Where is perl? Does /usr/bin/perl


exist? Is it executable?



Try running:



        which perl



What does that output?
