Christos,
Sorry, it took so long to get back to you. I think I can help you out
on this. There seems to be a problem with the datetime functionality
with your machine. I may be wrong. Go to
http://www.21ccs.com/~gboersm/y2kmatrix and download y2kmatrix. Compile
it (let me know if you get errors), and, if it compiles (./compile;
make) go into the bin directory and type ./y2kmatrix. You'll have a
file called y2kmatrix.out. Do a gzip on this (gzip y2kmatrix.out), and
mail that to me at gboersm@stripped), and, I'll compare it to a known
good matrix I have, tomorrow. This, at least will rule out problems
with your machines' ability to compile and run date-sensitive
applications.
From there we can look at your Perl scripts.
Regards,
Van
