	Correct, that does work.

	Ahh, okay.  For some strange reason, I thought it was a Perl problem.

	Oh, okay.  I didn't know that.  I'll have to re-run the tests.

	We do have bash installed on those machines (it's part of our 
standard installation kit we put on virtually all our Solaris boxes), 
but it would be nice if this code could be modified so that it 
doesn't require bash.

	I'll have to try switching to bash to see if that fixes the problem.


	Thanks!
