Thanks for the answer.
I am aware that the 'which' command will tell me where the perl executable is installed. But I'm looking at a server that was setup by someone else and I don't know whether they've install any of the toolbox packages. Therefore I cannot assume I'm looking at a pristine AIX install. Hence the question.
