are you sure about that dbmopen() line?
eg:
perldoc -f dbmopen
seems to suggest that DBNAME shoudl be
the 'name' without the Suffix,
dbmopen (%PLRULES, "/var/szs/rules",0755) or die $!;because i'm a bit concerned that your dmbopen is actually trying to find the file "/var/szs/rules.dbm.dbm" - depending upon the underlying OS it is on.
but you might want to actually cross over and look at doing a 'tie' - cf
perldoc -f tie
