(What sort of machine are you on?) The "easiest" way to fix this is probably to put crypt libraries out on the box, though some people like to strip things like this out when they harden an operating system. Second alternative is to recompile perl and make sure libcrypt is statically linked in... (Some of the perl gurus might be of better help, though) Russell -- Russell M.
