exec "rsh $plant /u1/bin/forkit 'work.pl'" or
print STDERR "Couldn't fork it.\n $!\n";
BUT, even though the file it should be exec - ing 'work.pl' does NOT exist

How do I use the above, which starts my process then lets my calling program

why doesn't this work? It does in unix. Also what's the way I add a date

I'm running a pgm that copies files over to a new system if they are old or
do not exist. However, once I've copied the files to the new system, they
read the date they were created vs the date of the original files I copied.
