David, Are you looking to setup something and forget about it? If not, I can't stress my own opinion harder than to say Perl is a dead, very ugly language. I'd do something with Python personally but then again if you plan to do something at any scale with more than just switches you might look at an NMS solution. I use Icinga at a few joints. There, I did my due diligence in attempting to thwart the proliferation of Perl in lieu of uncountable better languages that would serve your admin duties way better:) Good luck, jlc
