unlang is great/fantastic for doing stuff that is trivial and needs to be done 'in the server' - if you need to access outside facilities - eg get stuff from other resources, read contents from files etc then PERL gives you more access. we've got installations running with 128 perl threads fine for almost a year now. the server told us how many threads it needed as when we didnt give it enough, it complained! ;-) my opinion. of course. alan - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
