| sorry if this is in the wrong newsgroup. am not a perl programmer, so am
not sure under what heading to put this under. simply put:
my company has a software (written in perl) that it runs on our internal
servers (linux). we would
like to be able to have 3rd party companies run it, not off of our servers,
but on their own internals network. but obviously we don't want them to
be able to see our source code.
can i ask what solutions there are?
are there compilers? reliable ones? am sure we are not the first to
encounter this scenario, so am sure there is a solution.
many thanks ahead, as always.

This Question is Asked Frequently.
perldoc -q hide: "How can I hide the source for my Perl program?"
You may want to check that one first because it addresses several aspects.

There is a product called perl2exe that allows you to compile perl into
an executable under on win32, but i am not sure if they have a unix port
for their product.
