Re: w2k and perl - argument path problem


It appears that you are using the Perl from Cygwin on NT but a Windows Perl
(Active State Perl for instance) on W2K.

Check your path for and find out `which perl` you are using.

Please do not CC me any responses since not only am I a member of the
mailing list but I can also use the online archives.
