Unfortunately no, I have been exclusively consulting on 
the Unix side until now.  My new client is all NT, so I 
have to re-write all of my scripts in Perl for NT.  
Alternatively, you can purchase MKS Toolkit for 
Administrators (www.mks.com), which has a Korn Shell, C-
Shell, Bourne Shell interpreter, plus a host of other 
goodies for NT.  I downloaded the trial version and 
with a few PATH modifications, all of my UNIX scripts 
work just fine on NT.  I was breathing a sigh of relief 
as I was able to navigate around NT from the command 
line without thinking about it...

Shouldn't take too long to re-do this one in Perl 
though...
