pp looks cool will have to investigate that further, because on other systems they've been configured to use a local repository. Not sure if that was using pp, because perl was installed as part of CA Siteminder base install, which I'm leveraging and want to add additional modules to it with ppm or cpan using a local repository because there's no internet access on the servers and when I do a ppm rep list I can see the local repository but it points to a non existent path.

What's interesting is on my local machine if I do a "ppm install xml::libxml" it works, but if I do "cpan install xml::libxml" it doesn't work and bit9 blocks it. Then again was working with the windows admin team who might have whitelisted it already because I was making a big stink about it. He came back and told me to use ppm instead of cpan

Thanks again perl monks, you guys are always there to lend a helping hand and that's what makes perl great.
