I'll need those extra repositories, thanks :)

Hm...maybe I'm missing something here. I used nmake to install a module (HCE_SHA) and the resultant file HCE_SHA.pm was created under 'C:/perl/tmp/Crypt-HCE_SHA-0.70//blib/lib/Crypt/' - the 'tmp' directory was created by me and I extracted the tar file from there.

When I next tried to install EncryptForm.pm using nmake, I got a message saying HCE_SHA.pm not found. I then moved HCE_SHA.pm to 'C:/perl/site/lib/Crypt/' and after that I was able to install EncryptForm with nmake. Then again, it wasn't installed in the proper directory.

I think ppm is still the better method.
