This is an old revision of the document!


Installing CPAN:

First make sure ncftp is installed.

# rpm -ivh ncftp-3.1.9-1.i386.rpm
# perl -MCPAN -e shell

Then you can install a module:

# export FTP_PASSIVE=1
# cpan install Date::Manip (or cpan Date::Manip)
# cpan install Bundle::CPAN // (or cpan Bundle::CPAN)

Updating the currently installed version of CPAN:

# cpan
cpan> install CPAN
cpan> reload cpan
cpan> exit
