No, it's a type that I changed from using one name to
the other somewhere during the preparation of the email
(and failed to recopy the code) -- The calls were 
symetric on everything that failed. 

The above code would not "hang" but would do nothing
after the "we got through..." print.

The first version read:
> > open(IPSEC, "netsh ipsec static show all format=table |") or die 
> > "Can't run
> > netsh: $!\n";
> > print "we got through the call to 'netsh'\n"; while (<IPSEC>) {

The current version now reads:
> > open(NETSH, "netsh ipsec static show all format=table |") or die 
> > "Can't run
> > netsh: $!\n";
> > print "we got through the call to 'netsh'\n"; while (<NETSH>) {

Both versions hang on the open with these netsh switches.

Usually I paste the actually tested code -- I apologize
for this mistake and the confusion.
