This can happen, when a script uses a broken perl extension module. It's not necessarily perl's fault. Try to identify the script that triggers those coredumps, then look at the extension modules used by that script. You may then want to recompile (an updated version of) the extension module, so that it matches the version of your current perl installation. Good luck. > Chris Bearden Cheers, cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/
