in thread Creating a tgz file without a module

Try looking for a file ".tar.gz" instead! :-)

Sounds like some form of Change Manglement err.. Management process to me.

If you have to do this sort of thing on a regular basis (tar up files) I'd say it would be worth the time and trouble get the approvals. I've been there done that and feel your pain.

In my humble opinion using system is at best a bandaide. I'd rather take the time and trouble to get a job done right in the long run than accept the idea that I can't because of paperwork.

    I couldn't agree more, I'd rather write the code and make sure it's going to work instead of coming up with a temporary solution. I'll look around to see if I can either get Perl updated to 5.10 or at least get the module added. </P
