Hi there,
I have a perl logwatcher made but I need to improve it by using some modules that aren't in the standart perl that is installed in the system. I've requested to upgrade the perl on the machine and the modules in it but I got a negative answer because of the system administration overhead....
But I did get a positive answer if I do the following:
Setup a standalone perl (updated) with all my necessary modules, my perl logwatcher and routines and create a software package (solaris package). This way the sys admins would have only to worry with 1 package that would much more simple to control and upgrade.
And I do agree with then since Im the only person who is using perl systems (go figure!).
The problem is, how do I do that? Can somebody point me to the right direction please.
Thanks in advance.
Nuno A
