...okay... ...but one of my original questions, which I don't see an answer to here, is whether this has anything to do with the web. You're asking a Windows based perl/web programming list something that sounds a lot more like a cross-platform (esp unix) network programming question. Correct? If you're trying to do this over the web (i.e. the unix machine is running an http server and you want to write a w2000 based perl script to interact with that server), then this is the place to ask. But it doesn't sound like this has anything to do with web programming. Tell us more about the server script in question. What is it doing? Why does it need authentication info (username/password)? Do you need to log into the system itself, or some specific system running on the server? Is that system a database? If so, which one? What network protocol are we talking about here? Web/http? File transfer/ftp? Mail/smtp? You don't have to tell us *everything*, but without a decent understanding of what that program you want to communicate is -- what it's interfaces are, what inputs it needs, etc -- then it's impossible to give advice. -- Chris Devers [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Web mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/listinfo/perl-win32-web
