To accept stnin use something like this: chomp ($var = <STDIN>); If you want to use a resource kit command then remember that perl needs to know how to interpret the command and not think its part of its own function, so enclose the resource kit command in tics like so: `reg query "HKLM\software\somewhere\somekey=" \\\\ahostname`;
