Then you can start adding a few prints at that point to work out why.
Or, if you don't mind the shotgun approach, Devel::DumpTrace will print variable values, too. It may be too verbose to be useful in some cases.

    BrowserUK and Toolic, thanks. I've used both of those before and they should help. Apparently, was having a brain cramp earlier and bothered y'all instead of thinking them up, myself.

    Lanx,
    - identical perl version.
    - identical modules installed.
    - Don't remember the results of tests during install.... 'Been a while. But, we're not in the habit of using modules that don't test out pretty cleanly.
    - Not my choice to use Win32::Lanman. That having been said, it seems to be widely used and stable.... (except for this wrinkle).
    - Hadn't thought about contacting the author. Good idea that I'll pursue if Devel::Trace and/or Devel::DumpTrace are not fruitful.


    Thanks all.
    Gives me plenty to chew on.
