Hello,
I'm trying to print a tab delimited file based on a colon separated file
matching a key in %hash.  I've attempted a few different things w/ the
colon separated file (splitting it into to variables, making it %hash2)

I have been using LWP::Simple successfully to download data files from a
number of sources. I now have to work with a web site that requires a
username and password (which I have) but I have no idea how to get perl
to interface and provide that information.  

how good is 'crypt()'? it seems that for small differences in the target
string you get duplicate digests. i get the following results (using
debugger):
DB<1> $f='aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaab'

I need a perl script that runs under linux that should recursively
search the directory tree and print out all the files that have a uid or
gid that does not resolv to a username or userid.
Can anyone give me a hint ?

My code is comparing the variables node and db in one input file to

What does $.: mean?

How do I, inside Perl, get the path of the home directory?
I assume if I can do this, it will only work under Linux / Unix?

# /usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my $CT = "/usr/atria/bin/cleartool";

I am trying to parse some dhcp-lease files to extract the ip, mac and
hostname.
I am struggling to get either, the regex of the $/, correct. I am not
sure which combination of these I should use.

I had to first compile PadWalker.xs file into c file. And then compile.
Which c compiler should I use. How could I set up the building env?
