Hi, I have a FreeBSD OS server, and use Apache hosting web page. I also intalled Perl_mod already in my PC. Now we want to host some *.asp web page, so I try to install apache-asp. It is itnroducted to use the way of: download the apache-asp source file form http://cpan.org/modules/by-modules/Apache/ then in the command line, do : 

Sheel prompt> perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan>install CPAN
cpan>install bundle::Apache::ASP
However, during the installation, the screen keep telling me to do : 

install Net::FTP
and also tell me to do 

install Bundle::libnet
etc, ......
And after above procedure , I put a test.asp document on the apache server, and the browser tells me: 500 internal server error. I guess my Apache::asp was not successfully installed. And I tried to do the above installation again, still the same problem. I wonder whether the mirror ftp CPAN I chose to download is down. And I understand once I choose the ftp site, the brower will stick to the same address for CPAN, so in this case how do I change the ftp site for install CPAN. Or what should I do to fix the above problem. If I am not describing my problem clearly, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Your early reply will be highly appreciated.
