Anyone know the "proper" way to activate dialup networking on win2000? Using PERL of course. I can double click it no problem:) When I try what used to work on 98, it fails, and locks the system up so bad that it takes a long time to shut down for a reboot. Network and dialup connections is o

Guys, My understanding is that there is a bug in the file extension/application to execute code, that is part of windows, that stops redirection from working if Microsoft does this "lookup" itself. Stopping it having to do this lookup, by invoking Perl.exe directly, gets around this issue. Thi

Hi, Burak. I'm not sure what your problem might be. Runs fine for me on my system. OS: Win2K Perl: 5.6.1 (ActivePerl build 635) Tk: 800.024 You are running on the bleeding edge. Tk 804.025 is very much "beta" right now. Which sub-version of Tk 804.025 are you running? Current is "beta 14".

Well, maybe it is a configuration issue, but I am running NT 4.0 (like in the original message) on a test machine and I cannot redirect or pipe from a batch file. It is worth testing on the individual machine that is causing the problem. Either way, it is something to be wary of. -- Chris -
