in thread Why would trying to install net::ftp fail?

Update: When the following reply was made the parent post by hnd read:

try to run cpan on the terminal (if you have linux) or the cmd (on windows) and type<br.
cpan>install net::ftp

it will get installed automatically......

My reply was:

No it wont, did you test this at all?

cpan> install net::ftp Warning: Cannot install net::ftp, don't know what it is. Try the command i /net::ftp/ to find objects with matching identifiers.

What you want is:

cpan> install Net::FTP

Or via PPM:

c:\ppm install Net::FTP

Perhaps reading Installing Modules would be a good idea.
