I'm not an AIX expert, but I do have an account on an AIX cluster $ uname -srv AIX 3 4 My guess is that your Perl is packaged and built with an unbundled compiler that you don't have installed. Install GNU gcc, build your perl with it from source, and then install your favorite modules. If I ever wanted to become an AIX admin, I'd do the following: *Read the comp.unix.aix FAQ, archived @ http://www.faqs.org/ *Start reading the comp.unix.aix newsgroup, archived @ http://groups.google.com *Subscribe to any AIX mailing lists I can find. *Make friends with all the veteran AIX admins in my local community. Buy them beer and get them to divulge their favorite AIX specific books, magazines, conferences, and finally get their personal email addresses and cell phone numbers. John [EMAIL PROTECTED]
