By "intra" I'd guess you mean intranet, but in any case, it has no bearing here whatsoever. My question to you is, What made you pick this format (if you have no idea how to parse it, why'd you pick it)? 
# passwd.ini
user1|pass1|email@some.net|some|other|stuff
user1|pass1|email@some.net|some|other|stuff
user1|pass1|email@some.net|some|other|stuff

"what i think i should do is extract them into arrays like %user/pass/email/some/other/vars"

Why do you think that?

Arrays %user...? I suggest you read perldata until you understand the basic perl data structures. After that, I sugguest you head on to perlfunc and look at perlfunc:split... perlsyn is always a good read ...

IMHO, that's more than enough reading material to get you on your way and beyond.

Cheers,
