I just did a > configure -d to accept all the defaults. Which Perl? I am getting 100% success with bleadperl (5.7.2/5.8.0 to be), but I know that others are still getting some nagging failures. I suspect that there will be a class of tests which will frequently fail unless you are: - running NT4 or W2K - on a machine that is a member of a domain - and using ntsec I know that a lot of work has happened recently to fix problems which still existed in 5.6.1, both cross-platform and CygWin specific, so you are better off with bleadperl than with the so-called stable perl.
