in thread How to ensure that a supported version of my script is being executed?

taint,

Don't know it you meant your comment for me or for the OP's original question, but the OP did state that the 'person(s)' know(s) Perl, and can delete/modify code that tests for the correct script. A simple '#" in front of your code would defeat the test.

It's still a management problem.

    Greetings, It was intended for the OP (I apparently missed the "they can re-write" his script part). :P
    In response to your post; Right you are -- chown opuid:opgid ./opscript-name; chmod 0744 ./opscript-name (op prefix meaning Original Poster). :)

    #!/usr/bin/perl -Tw
use perl::always;
my $perl_version = "5.12.4";
print $perl_version;
