not to violate your security policies, but I think 10g installs perl
under it's home. Why not use those binaries for your perl scripts.
use the find2perl (may not come with oracle's distro) and you get a
"find" perl script written for your needs.
I haven't tried it, but it should work.

On a semi-related note, is there any way (using "pure" cmd.exe) to identify files older than say, 5 days? For example, something similar to "find . -name "myfile\* -mtime +5".
Unfortunately I'm not allowed to add additional software, so the use of add-on tools like cygwin/perl/etc. simply isn't an option. :(
