Hi
We're using quite a heavily customised submit script (that uses the gui)to submit xsi renders from linux workstations to a linux renderfarm. I'm currently updating it so that we can submit from win2k workstations to a linux renderfarm. The scripts are just about working, the problem I have is when running the scripts on a win2k workstation, sometimes it will open up the gui no problem, sometimes I'll get a DOS window open then close & then nothing happens, and sometimes I'll get an error - 16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem. C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe. The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction. CS:0fcb IP:210f OP:63 69 66 69 65 Choose 'Close' to terminate the application. I can choose either 'Close' or 'Ignore' - 'Ignore' will just bring up a few similar messages, then the application will close.
If I run other example scripts, or other ones I've customised I don't get any problems, so it must be something to do with this one script. I've tried commenting out certain lines which I though might cause problems, but with no success. I've trawled the internet, but can't find anything that helps. Does anyone have any ideas?
This isn't a show stopper by any means, but it'd be nice to get this script working as well as the others. 

Cheers
Andrew
