This is definately not the (only) problem. I have a Vx which has the
right IDname and ID#, which gets read just fine (Backup Buddy set ip
back for me on the PC).

The problem is in the line:

push(@$result, $dlp->getDBInfo($i,1,0));

Which reads the database IDs.. very strange. Does the getDBInfo routine
attempt to write anything?

I'll take another look after the weekend.

My setup:
Palm Vx 3.5.2
Solaris/Sparc 2.6
Perl 5.003

Cheers,

PS: I'm not on this list (yet)
