Yes, there is a new version of Win32::AdminMisc now available. It's
version 971022 and it is available at:
	ftp://ftp.roth.net/pub/ntperl/adminmisc/971022/adminmisc.zip
It will also be available soon on CPAN.
The .zip archive contains the Intel binary for build 310 and the Core
distribution.
There is a build for ActiveState build 307 available on my FTP site as
well.

There are a slew of new functions in this new version including functions
that:
-manage scheduled jobs
-read/write .ini files
-rename a user account
-set the password for any account without knowledge of current password
-get list of available drives
-get space information for a drive (bytes free and total)
-get drive type (network, local, removable, cdrom, etc)
-get OS, memory, processor & disk drive stats
-force windows to shutdown or logoff the current user
-Get/Set environmental variables for the System or User (not just the
current
 process).

Also the CreateProcessAsUser() has been modified and supports a bunch of
new options.
