in thread Microsoft Windows Configuration/Assett Management Using Perl

That's not true, you only need to have Perl installed on one machine - the machine that checks all the others. I have written scripts that read remote windows registries and check sytem config on other windows machines that do not have Perl installed.

Even if this were the case, it is possible to run perl scripts using the perl interpretter on a network share.

    You can also run Perl off of a CD. It's a great way to work around a "thou shalt not install Perl" edict when you have complicated installation and configuration tasks.
