in thread Installing Perl modules automatically

If you have fast internet, then I recommend you to install two cygwin categories "Network" and "Devel" entirely

I have installed the whole "Devel" category and and I will install "Net". As I see it has several ftp options

As I noticed, CPAN module routinely try to download the list of modules from CPAN servers

Do you know how I can cancel it? Do you know any files (except MyConfig.pm) that are resposible for CPAN configuration?

Thanks

Edit: g0n - fixed broken BR tags

    Sorry, I don't know, I never tried to change default options

    I'm just now reading man CPAN. Option "index_expire" may be what you need.
