Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello,

I installed Net::DNS 0.34 on UNIX AIX 5.1 with PERL 5.6.0. It reported that modules: HMAC-MD5.pm, MD5.pm, Base64.pm and More.pm were missing. However in its notes it said there were no dependencies except PERL 5.6.1. Are these packages new to 5.6.1 from 5.6.0? If not, does anyone know where I can download these specific packages from or which modules they are contained in?

Thanks,
Daniel L. Needles

    perl -MCPAN -e shell to install modules from the command line.

    search.cpan.org for documentation.

    perl -MMD5 -e 'print "success\n"' to check your installation of MD5, for example.
