As a long-time FreeBSD user, I would strongly recommend that you use the FreeBSD ports system to install Perl modules, whenever possible. Only use CPAN if there is no native port for the module that you need. If the module you want is named Foo::Thingy, the port will likely be named p5-Foo-Thingy, and can be located in the ports tree thusly: cd /usr/ports make search name=Foo-Thingy -- Greg Barniskis, Computer Systems Integrator South Central Library System (SCLS) <gregb at scls.lib.wi.us>, (608) 242-4716
