Perl Monks, Hello and thanks in advance for any answers to my question. I recently completed my first real perl application. Without getting into too much detail, the application is responsible for doing batch FTPs between my company and our clients. The idea behind this was to create a script/application using perl so we could just hand it off to the clients and have them either stick it in cron or run it manually whenever they need to. In order to do this, I needed some modules like Net::FTP and GnuPG::Interface (because the files need to be encrypted, which this app also does). So my question is, how do I go about including these modules in the perl app that I am going to send to the clients? I don't feel like instructing them on how to install these modules on their own. Is there any way I can package up the modules I need as well as the perl app and give it to them? Thanks again, Perl Monks. MikeR
