It is in my path (have a dualboot with Win98 as well, and there it works fine!).
But I normaly use NT (NT5 that is => Win2000). Also (doublecheck) when I type in
perl.exe[enter] perl activate's, so i'm pretty sure that isn't it... any other
ideas? (just to be sure, when you installed Xitami on NT, you didn't do anything
extra to get Perl to function? (desides installing perl offcourse..))
