    Same thing...STDERR never gets written to the file, only the terminal 
    use strict;
use warnings;

use IO::Handle;

my $file = 'C:\Progra~1\Ethereal\output.dat';

open (STDERR, ">&STDOUT");

open (OUTPUT, ">$file")   || die $!;
STDOUT->fdopen(\*OUTPUT, "w")  || die $!;

print "This is STDOUT\n";
warn "This is a warning\n";

    Please ignore my answer, sorry!
    My test script didn't work very well, so nothing was printed, which made me a little bit to enthousiastic :)
