Yeah, that's a toughie, because I know precisely nothing about Unix or Perl and "install-and-forget" is definitely what we'd prefer. On the other hand, I've been known to pummel all manner of tech-like things into cooperation and learn through trial, error, and google when necessary. Just, y'know, css/html and php and changing a hard drive - not something as complex as this.

You've given me food for thought, thanks!
