Hi all,

I have users on our LAN (all boxes runing RH 7.2) who's shell is our 
operations program /usr/local/src/rushclient/rush_menu.pl.  Everything 
has always worked fine except for one thing.  There is a script that 
uses convert system("convert barcode.png barcode.eps"); to convert a png 
file to a eps file.  When a user who's shell is the above named perl 
program executes the script the file simply does not get converted to an 
eps. The permissions are correct.  In fact, if I go to /etc/passwd and 
change the users shell to bash and reexecute the program and the 
script,  the file does get converted to an eps.  Does anyone have an 
idea how I can fix this?  I've been puzzled by it for some time now?

Richard
