Code:
$db_script_path = "C:/web/account/cgi-bin/links/admin";

AND

Code:
$build_root_path = "C:/web/account/links/pages";

* You will also have to change the path to the links.cfg file in the require lines in all your *.cgi files.

* You also have to change the Perl path in all your *.cgi files.

* You may have to change the file extension from .cgi to .pl. Some NT hosting companies only have .pl extensions configured.

* Your hosting company may have to set-up directory and file permissions for you. NT is less flexible in terms of user changing permissions of files and directories than UNIX.

also the hosting company mentioned that they dont use user/lib/sendmail on nt
They use asp q mail
will this be a problem?

Possibly...ask your new hosting company for more information on setting up email processes in your .cgi scripts and .pl scripts.
