Hello,
@Anonymous Monk
As I mentioned earlier I`ve tried both way in '' and "" and both don`t work.

@sundialsvc4
Thank for your nice opinion :).

For now i`ve fixed script a bit and translated it from polish descriptions and var names to english for easier reading for you :). Latest version of script: 

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use warnings;

#Variables
my $fbbin = "/opt/firebird/bin/";
my $data = "/opt/databases/";
my $ext = "gdb";
#my $shared = "/opt/shared/";
my $tempdir = "/opt/backup/";
#my $destdir = "/home/mery/backup/complete/";
#my $usbdev = "/dev/sdc1/";
#my $localdir = "/mnt/storage/testy/";
#my $mailerr = "core-powiadomienia\@core.com.pl";
my $klient = "PanTester";
my $mailtopic = "Raport nocnej kopii zapasowej w firmie $klient";

use POSIX();
print POSIX::strftime('%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S', localtime);

#Create database filenames table @files
        my $type = $ext;
        my $dir = $data;
        $type = "*.$type";
        print "looking for files with extension $type \n";
        chdir ($dir);
        my @files = qx(ls $type 2>&1);

foreach (@files) {
        print "Found database: $_\n";
}

# This loop run external gbak backup command to create $_.gbk files as
+ output in $tempdir

foreach (@files) {
        chdir ($fbbin);
#       print "Tworze kopie bazy $_ \n";
        system("./gbak -user sysdba -password masterkey -BACKUP_DATABA
+SE localhost\:$data$_ $tempdir`$_.gbk`") or die "Blad archiwizowania 
+bazy $_ \n";
#       print "Gotowa kopia bazy $_ \n";

/opt/backup is chmoded to 777 and owned by nobody.nogroup (it`s testing virtual machine so i`m not worried about security ;)) so i don`t understand why permission denied.
