Maybe you should post a small reproducable example script. (Since you mention the '&', maybe it's old instances of the script that are still running??) I don't know how your script works, but if have a script that calls /your/perl/script.pl every 15 seconds, then if you modify your perl script, the modified version will be executed the next time.. try running this script: echo hi > /tmp/foobar while true; do cat /tmp/foobar; sleep 1; done and while it is running, modify the /tmp/foobar file. you will see that the new content is seen.. no file cacheing, no magic. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
