Creating a PPD

2002-08-20 Thread Chad Wallace
Hello, I've created a module that I want to now pack into a PPD. I followed the instructions in the ActivePerl documentation, namely: 1. 'perl Makefile.PL' 2. 'nmake' 3. tar/gzip blib folder into 'CGI-Auth-2.20.tar.gz'. 4. 'nmake ppd' 5. Edit .ppd file tag. Then, I uploaded the .ppd and .tar

Announce: Win32-Exchange

Hi, I've put together a wrapper to all the OLE calls involved in Mailbox creation (and a few other functions) and packaged them up as Win32-Exchange, and I wanted to know what you think. This is purely perl and has no back-end DLLs (except what Win32-OLE uses)... I would love to hear any commen

Dick, This is a feature of the OS. All file and path names that do not conform to the eight dot 3 format need to be surrounded by quotes when invoked in console commands. The exception is ChDir which will parse the command either way. For a description of this behavior, type 'CD /?' in a dos

Sorry, I also meant to suggest a module such as Net::Telnet to log in to the UNIX box. Although, if you can use Net::SSH, you're better off running a secure login session (Telnet sends the login password in unencrypted ascii). Net::SSH example from CPAN: use Net::SSH qw(ssh issh sshopen2 sshopen

I prefer Perl/Tk for windows type of applications and a pretty nice book exists for it, "Mastering Perl/Tk" from O'Reilly. However, Win32::GUI and Win32::API are avaliable if you're unconcerned with multiplatform support of your application. Cheers, Carter. > -Original Message- >

It works for me on files but not directories and (of course:) -f and/or -d don't work, which would allow you to check for that possibility, and prevent it from happening. Which means it has very limited utility because there's a always a "possibility" lurking in the code. Is there any chance

Title: Update Info on retrieving password age from Unix I'm not familiar with what you are trying to do, but if you need to emulate a login and do stuff as that user, you might want to check out Net::Telnet or, if it's not 'telnet' that you're after you might try IO::Socket.     -Origi

If your system is set to use pw_age in the /etc/passwd configuration, something similar to this may work to get the age of the user's password. If the pw_age option isn't set, then I'm not sure. This example is for a single user only; you'd have to do something to iterate over each account. #!/us
