Daniel;
Thanks for your response. HN is working now and these are the
steps that I took to make it so.
In the install instructions, you say to comment out the
line "use Socket " if you are using Perl 4. I do not know
if it is the distribution I am using or what, but what I
had to do is comment out the entire if...else clause and
use the line that loaded sys/socket.ph manually. I think that
the $] was being interpreted as a string and therfore
greater than 5.
In the same script, the line :
chop ($thishost = '$hostname')
was not getting set right. I think that $hostname in Linux
or in Linux Perl may not be there or something. Then ENV $HOSTNAME
is set ok, but this does not make it to $hostname in Perl.
I set the $thishost variable manually and all is well.
