Sometimes you just need to look under your nose :) A Guide to Installing Modules by tachyon This tutorial was indispensible the first time I had to install a module. Good luck! Some people fall from grace. I prefer a running start...	[reply]

At a command prompt as root type `perl -MCPAN -e shell` Follow the instructions to configure CPAN. Type `install DBI` Here are some usefull links: http://www.perl.com/pub/a/CPAN/misc/cpan-faq.html#What_is_CPAN http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.6/pod/perlmodinstall.html FYI, I found these links by going to Perl.com and typing CPAN in their usefull search box.
