I have some PERL scripts that used to work fine and still do on several other ISPs.

My current ISP says they recently upgraded to a new version of Freebsd.

Some of my scripts would not run. These were the ones that used the
"time" function, to get the unix time.

They say that the LF (line feed) have to be removed to get the scripts to run.
I objected to that idea, so they say then can just remove the CR of the CRLF.

I never had problem like this before, so I think it is something odd about their new freebsd upgrade. These same scripts used to run on this server before.

Any ideas?
