I've written a small daemon using Net::Daemon to run on my company's server. Unfortunately, after writing and testing the code on my box, I was told that, for paranoia's sake, we could not install the Net::Daemon package on the server (or any other perl module, for that matter). So, it seems to me that this is a somewhat silly attitude, but it's one I have to deal with. Any suggestions for how to rewrite my code without the use of any perl modules, or perhaps any way to install the perl module without actually installing it (heh, if that makes sense - like cut all the documentation stuff out of it, throw it in the directory my script resides in, and use require instead of use)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
