    Thanks for your reply. I would love to run linux, but our vendor is not that cool.

    I got the following:

    /home/twhite =>perl -MCPAN -e shell
    Goto undefined subroutine &Exporter::heavy_export at /opt/freeware/lib/perl5/5.8 .0/Exporter.pm line 16.
    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /opt/freeware/lib/perl5/5.8.0/ExtUtils/MM_U nix.pm line 20.

    I must have done something really awful in a past life. My karma is bad.
