in reply to Filenames based on timestamp
You might want to check perlfaq8 and read "How to measure time under one second".
If you are lucky you can use that bit of information to get a more detailed timestamp.

However, I would either try to get the sysadmin to install Time::HiRes or use perl-5.8.0RC2 (in a bit 5.8 ;-)), which has Time::HiRes as a core module.
Otherwise I would suggest to read perlfaq5 "How do I make a temporary file name?".
