in thread Ensuring cpan modules installed on all computers in a network are consistent

You could do that. The way I've done is via puppet and cfengine. Also via func and ansible. Ducks for mentioning python apps on a perl pub These methods require some work to get setup. SSL or SSH if you're the paranoid type (want to sleep soundly through the night).

Create your rpm and then deploy it:

for i in $(cat serverlist) do ssh "$i" "sudo yum -y install your.rpm" done

    Assuming your using CentOS. Lets also assume a perl module rpm isn't available through the main or extras yum repo. BE VARY CAREFUL ABOUT DOWNLOADING RPMS FROM THE OPEN INTERNET. As you really can't trust what's in them. When in doubt, build your own rpm.

    It would be akin to downloading a exe from gnutella. Which is most surely a trojan.
