OK..we were ALL wrong!

Gossamer guys and gals.... if your ISP updates to Perl 5.8 you MAY have problems.
A bunch of the CGI scripts in this system have #!/usr/bin/perl5 hard coded.

Perl 5.8 doesn't not like the 5 in Perl5. It considers it a 'downgrade'?

Anyway...I had to go through the directories and check every CGI and PL file.
Those that had Perl5 were changed to just Perl..and all is working again properly.

Apperantly this has never been a problem in Perl in past revisions, but it is NOW!

Thanks for your patience with me. This was a bit of a tuffy to figure out!
