Is there another way to get access to the environment variables... this works, but it seems kind of kludgy..
my $machine = `echo \$HOSTNAME`; Also, is there a way to detemine whether the script is being executed by root? I tired doing: my $is_root = `echo \$UID` but for some reason this doesn't work, but it works in a bash script...it appears that $UID isn't available or something... thanks! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
