Did you actually try the move? If not, then go ahead. Perl and Perl/Tk
are for the most part cross-platform, and should give you minimal
trouble. Java claims to be so too.

If you did, and are having problems, then what is your question?

Which language is your database access based on, Perl/DBI or
Java/JDBC ? If its Perl/DBI based, you might want to do a quick
standalone install/test of that before migrating all the other stuff;
I think I've seen a number of notes on the dbi-users
maillist wrt building/using Perl DBI/DBD modules on AIX.
