new("Application", '\\\\MDS-APL')
Unfortunately that did not work either!
Also, does anyone know if this module only allows me to write to the application log? I have tried (Locally) writing to the Security or System log to no avail!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You are passing a single parameter to Win32::EventLog::new !
(everything in the quotes gets interpolated into a single value).
If that's a typo and you really meant new("Application", $ENV{'\\\\MDS-APL'})
then are you sure you meant the contents of the environment variable named \\MDS-APL and not the computer naremed \\MDS-APL ?
I think you need to lose the $ENV{} around '\\\\MDS-APL'.
