in thread Verifying File Type Using Only Modules from basic distribution of Perl

I thought I would have to have shell access to install the module to a private diretory, no? I have only FTP access to this %^$&%^$& server run by %$^%$ jerks and paid for by my $%%^$ clinet who won't &^*^ listen to me and go with Unix at Hostways.
TIA

    As long as there are no binary compatability issues, you could build and install it to a local directory structure on your workstation that matches the remote box and recursivly ftp it up (ncftp is great for that kind of thing) to the remote box and just make use of it.

    It'd be nice if there was some way of building modules localy and 'deploying' them to another box....that might even make a good CPAN module.
