I am running perl 5.6.1, bastille linux, and RH 7.3. I'm having trouble using a perl module. I try to load it using the test.pl file

the test.pl file 
#!/usr/bin/perl

BEGIN{
        require "/home/neteng/RRDs.pm";
        eval('"/home/neteng/RRDs.pm"->import()');
}

#use lib qw(/home/neteng/RRDs.pm);  <---I have also tried this
#use RRDs  <--and this

Ran as root:

[root@netflow neteng]# perl -c test.pl
test.pl syntax OK

it's not the fact that it's not finding the module. I have had that error before....it says Cannot locate file RRDs.pm. This is actually a different error, where it says "Cannot locate loadable module" I think it has something to do with bastille linux. not letting non-root users load modules.

ive spent about 20+ hrs on this problem, im about ready to reformat and not use bastille.
