Brother peschkaj, It may be worth your time to try CPANPLUS instead of CPAN. Having rebuilt one of my Debian boxen recently, I found that CPANPLUS worked flawlessly for refitting the ~50 perl modules that I often employ, and that's from behind a Squid proxy. I never had any luck getting the original CPAN module to work from behind a proxy. 8^( There's even an introduction at "Perl Module administration with CPANPLUS" right here in the Monastry I suspect that manually installing the following modules *before* CPANPLUS may have helped it go so smoothly for me. Compress::Zlib Archive::Tar Archive::Zip Test::Harness Test::Simple Storable IPC::Run MailTools File::Temp Term::Size And like any good monk, you doubtless already know that ritual: Fetch and extract the module tarball perl Makedfile.PL make make test make install cheers, Don striving toward Perl Adept (it's pronounced "why-bick")
