in reply to NDBM_File

Thats because you use DB_File and not NDBM_File.

MJD says you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo!
I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6x+5.8x. I take requests.

    I get the same. On the other hand, it seems to me that (at least on my site) DB_File handles transparently all NDBM_File requestes to the NDBM_File package...

      Then you don't have NDBM_File properly installed.

      DB_File has nothing to do with NDBM_File (except that they both implement the tie interface), so whatever you mean by your last sentance cannot possibly happen.
