Thank you to all that answered.  I followed the above recommendation 
and the file went to the 400 very easily.  I can't seem to execute it 
though. 
The error I get is:
   Can't open perl script "/QOPENSYS/NAMEDCONTROL.PL": No such 
path or directory.

There is only two things I can think of that may be causing this.  One is 
there may be a way I need to tell the 400 where the root directory starts. 
 The other is the file may not have been converted properly.   I'm not sure 
if it was transferred ok or not.  I don't have a program (that I know of) 
that will look at it on the 400 side.  If I look at the PC file on the PC with 
Note Pad it looks like:
#!/usr/bin/perl################################

`/sbin/ifconfig ppp0 | /usr/bin/grep inet | /bin/cut -f2 -d: | /bin/cut -
c1-15`) &&   $ip =~ s/\s+//g) unless $ip;$user

If I look at the PC file on the PC with UEDIT32 it looks like:
#!/usr/bin/perl

($ip, $user, $pass, $domain) = @ARGV;

$AF_INET = 2;
$SOCK_STREAM = 1;

$SIG{'INT'} = 'dokill';

sub dokill {
   kill 9,$child if $child;
}

$sockaddr = "S n a4 x8";

(
   chop($ip = `/sbin/ifconfig ppp0 | /usr/bin/grep inet | /bin/cut -f2 -d: 
| /bin/cut -c1-15`) &&
   $ip =~ s/\s+//g
) unless $ip;

$user

Unfortunatly UEdit32 gives me a GPF when I try to look at the file 
through Network Neighborhood.  NotePad gives me the same garbage.
Another thing I'm not sure of is when I look at the attributes of the file 
Namedcontrol.pl it says:
                                           Display Attributes

When I transfer the file with FTP it says the Code page is 819.  I don't 
know if that's correct.  If I copy and paste the file through Network 
Neighborhood the Code page is 4xx.  
Before I transferred the file I checked the system value QCCSID.  It is 
set at 37 for US English and on the PC in C:\Windows\CWBTFR.INI the 
only thing in the file is one line that reads:
[Client Access Data Transfer] ForceTranslation=1

By the way.  The program was compiled with QSECOFR and when I run it 
I am signed on as QSECOFR.

Does anyone know what I could be missing?

Thank you,

Gary Kuznitz
