Hello good monks,

I am faced with a problem that unless solved I am going to shoot someone/something/both. I can write perfectly good working scripts on my windows developement computer, but when change all that needs to be changed in order for it to work on my linux account, (paths, directories, path to perl, etc.) it dies. And for the weirdest reasons. Maybe it is something in my coding? Any time I do work out of my CGI book, it works with maybe a few fixable quirks I find this quite strange, and even more frustrating. If a kind monk could lend some kind advice, I would be ever so happy.

Ergo!!! Vis a Vis!!! Concordidly!!! Mr. Timberlake. I apologize. I don't usually like to use my big voice.
