Perl running on Linux and NT????

[Phil Buckley]

I ran into a perl snafu the other day and can't figure it out. It's not
a syntax problem (for a change) but a networky question.

I work for a tiny web development company. We run our internal network
off a linux server. Everything was going fine until we met with our
newest client. Their network is NT only. So when we signed on to do a
project for them, they gave us one of their NT servers so we could
develop directly on the machine that the small perl/MySQL application
will sit on. Development on the NT box also went okay.
Here's the icky part...
We use the linux server as our gateway for the network and only have a
dial up PPP connection which gives us a dynamic IP address. We need to
let the client access to their machine, to do some data entry. If I
mount the NT box as part of the linux system, the perl written on the NT
box tries to use the perl on the linux machine.

The big question - is there a way to make the perl on the NT box only
use the Windows perl?
