Thanks guys,
that helped alot!!!
what about doing something like this:
if ($slurp =~ /defaultusername=(.+)/i) {
$usr = $1;
}
else {
   print no defualtusername entry!! for $file;
}
if ($slurp =~ /defaultpassword=(.+)/i) {
$pass = $1;
}
else {
   print No default password entry;
}
as part of a larger script is that safe? becuase the $pass and $usr 
would be processed in the Larger part of the script. ?

thoughts?
and thanks!

$slurp =~ /defaultusername=(.+)/i;
$usr = $1;
print printing the value of the test var: $usr\n;
if ($file = $usr){
