When I run this, I get an error "Can't localize lexical variable". I understand that it's because the variable is declared using "my"; what I don't understand is why, or what I should declare the variable as, since if I leave out "my" I get an error using "use strict".
Maybe you want.. Use vars qw(@excludedIPAddresses); Hope this helps... jwm -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
