Well you are is a tough spot that is for sure.
I would try and put it to him like this. First of all Solaris
8 ships with perl. As far as it being supported well that just
does not make any sense. If you write a script in Ksh or Perl even if
you have a support contract does he think they are gonna debug
it for you? I can tell you for sure they are not. Sun does however
support it enough to ship it with their OS (finally) Also Randal
makes a great point about a community that will be faster and
more adept at helping you. Sun support covers things like bad
controllers and bent pins on a scsi connector. They are not
in the habit of debugging scripts. Tell him to go to a meeting and
leave the programming to the programmers. = )

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
