Simple question that I'm having trouble answering on my own: Can you use PERL accross servers. Specifically, can you open a text file with a CGI file when the files are on seperate folders. Also, can you "require" files on a different server?

Thanks in advance,

Tyler

Why not?
You don't do the following all the time anyway:

open(READ,"myfile.txt");

Instead, you can always specify the full path like so:

open(READ,"/path/to/myfile.txt");

can you "require" files on a different server?

Absolutely no. What if it's possible, then everything on the internet is within your control as if other server's files are residing in your hard drive.
