For NT 4.0 system administration using Perl, you should buy, borrow, or steal a copy of the following seminal texts:
Roth, Dave. Win32 Perl Programming: The Standard Extensions.
Roth, Dave. Win32 Perl Scripting: The Administrator's Handbook.
Blank-Edelman, David N. Perl for System Administration.
I'm sure others on this list will provide pointers to sources of scripts, but you'll need the background provided by the above titles to understand and extend those scripts.

Hi Listers,
I'm new to this list. I joined this list to expand my knowlege of using perl
for NT 4.0 system administration.
I come from a Unix System Admin/Informix DBA background. I am now working in
a Windows NT 4 Server and Workstation environment.
I'm became used to writing shell scripts to automate some system
administration tasks.
I want to do the same things in the Windows NT environment.
I've been using Robert's Perl Tutorial plus a Learning Perl CD along with
other resources I've found on the internet.
My experience has been very rewarding with group lists such as this one.
I hope I will enjoy thie experience as well.
I'd like to start by locating documentation that describes all the Win32
functions that are available for perl. I'd also appreciate if anyone would
share some of their perl for NT 4 system administrtion scripts with me so I
can start to learn by example.
BTW, I'm using ActiveState ActivePerl which I downloaded a few days ago.
Thanks is advance,
Denmark Weatherburne
