if ( $unv{$accountID} = $accountAD ) {

Changing the '=' to 'eq' should correct it. Do you use warnings;? There is a warning (Found = in conditional, should be ==) you will see if you enable warnings.

HTH

Update: It should be eq, not == Thanks for the heads up Enlil

    I wasn't using use warnings; but I added that and tested the script before changing your suggestion. It didn't give off any error in my program or on the web. I changed the = to == but the same problems are present. As long as the ID exists, the AD doesn't matter.

      It looks to me like you should be using 'eq' not '==' because both ID and AD are not numeric.
