I can not reproduce this problem with the HP supplied Perl 5.8.6 or with Perl v5.11.0. I do not have a later Perl built. In general, if the xxx::a.a syntax works on node xxx, and does not work from a different node, then it indicates that something is wrong, like a missing or incorrect proxy, or an error in the sylogin.com or login.com, or something else is causing the problem.
