Thanks for your reply, what i was interested in doing was installing the modules to my local area on the server say:
msc/student5/public_html/perlmods/
Then i wanted to be able to use these modules in my code when running a perl cgi script from msc/student5/public_html/
The environment im using is Biolinux but im working on a windows based machine. If that helps.
I need to know how to install via cpan prompt
