- I was having a problem with sybperl running from cron.
-
- Especially if cron calls a shell that calls perl.
-
- I was getting bus errors at runtime.
-
- Randal Schwartz gets the credit for figuring out that sybperl
- looks for DSQUERY to be set at startup.
-
- Put $ENV{DSQUERY} = MYSERVER; first line, even if you don't use
- sybase in the script.

- cheers,
