    array not functioning

    What exactly is it doing now, is it still printing 'failed'? I tried your code and commented out the parts that actually send the e-mail but it didn't exhibit the problem you originally posted.

    Leaving a company - need advice

    Everything seems to be working out fine. The person they now have in that position seems to be doing a good enough job. He'll e-mail me with a question or two every once in a while but that's about it. However, I kind of wish they needed me more, I could always use some extra money. :-)

    Keeping spyware off users' computers

    All users are power users or admins on their computers so that wouldn't be an issue.

    Arrays in the sendmail portion of script

    Why use the "Parse_Form" sub instead of param() like you did with @Decorations? And for your problem, you can actually get the "Decorations" to show in the browser but not in the e-mail?

    Need advice from expierenced Network Admins.

    It sounds like they could save money in the long run by getting you training on the tasks they outsource. Especially if you have so much downtime that could be utilized more effectively. Perhaps you could compare training costs to outsourcing costs over a year to show them that it would be...

    Need advice from expierenced Network Admins.

    My employer had sent me to training and helped me get some certs as well, but fortunately they didn't make me sign a contract. However my resignation has made them think seriously about contracts in the future. Personally, I wouldn't have done the training and certs if they had wanted me to...

    Need advice from expierenced Network Admins.

    I just started my new job doing web development. The company I left made me a counter-offer too late to keep me. It was a pretty good deal but I don't think they would have been able to afford that deal for long. Plus, I had already accepted the new job and made up my mind about what I wanted...

    Any way all the extension mods can be package installed ?

    It looks like CPAN's autobundle function may help.

    Need advice from expierenced Network Admins.

    I just quit a job as the sole IT person/network admin/help desk/programmer/etc. My days mostly consisted of supporting little problems. I was pretty much required to help with anything and everything that came up. And the users didn't like to think much so there were times that I got called...

    Net::Wake

    That looks like the way to do it, assuming the other subnet is 192.168.1.0 and the x's in the MAC address are actual numbers . If it's not working then perhaps there's something with your VPN that's inhibiting the broadcast. I'd add to your post in the VPN forum with more information regarding...

    Show only 20 contribution

    And you'll need to use the 'count' function in MySQL to determine how many records you have. That way you can calculate how many pages you need, or how many times to show the 'next' link. Each 'next' link will need to pass along a parameter telling which page to show. You'll then use that...

    truncate fields

    According to the docs, you should be able to simplify that to: $field = substr ($field, 0, 50); In other words, you don't have to check the length of the string because substr does the right thing.

    CGI configuration issue suspect httpd.conf file.

    Your scripts are in "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/" and the first line of the scripts tell how to run it (ie. #!/usr/bin/perl), correct? Since you have a ScriptAlias in your conf file, Apache should attempt to execute any file that's in that directory.

    I need help requesting 6 monitors at work for a division

    I was able to replace five CRT's with 17" LCD's at my company even though we had CRT's to spare. I sold it to them by pointing out that it saves on desk space, looks better, and is much easier on the eyes. I also found a great deal which made them much more comparable to CRT's. I was very...

    Leaving a company - need advice

    Thanks Dollie and aquias! And curse both of you as well, I had to go and find the lyrics. And to follow up, the contract employee they brought in seems to be pretty competent so I feel they'll be in good shape. Now... only 2 days left! [bigsmile]

    Leaving a company - need advice

    Thanks for the responses everyone. They've actually found someone already to come in on a contractual basis, though they'll be working 40 hrs/wk at first. I'm sure they're dishing out more money than the counteroffer they presented me, but oh well. I have three days to train this guy and help...

    Leaving a company - need advice

    This is my last week with my current employer, a small-ish company where I'm the sole IT person. I'm loyal to this company and want to make sure they do fine when I'm gone, though I know I can only do so much. I was wondering what tips anyone could give me to leave them in a good position when...

    backgrounds in cgi?

    Try closing your <body> tag. You currently have : </form> <body> </html> instead of: </form> </body> </html>

    Net::SMTP to send mail from perl through outlook

    What do you mean by the 'company email extension'? You should be putting in the name of the SMTP server. At our office our e-mail is hosted by a third party SMTP server so the SMTP server's name is different than the part of the e-mail address after the '@'. Also make sure the SMTP server...
