 None of the hostnames in the configs work.  
 I am not a Perl programmer, but I do write quite a few Csh and Bourne shell
scripts 
 and they resolve names fine for my sysadm chores.  FreeBSD ships with perl
5.005 and
 I use the perl port for 5.6.1_15.
 Do you know of a way I could test if the all of the perl 5.6.1
libaries/routines get set in
 the path?
