I am seriously screwed up with the installation of module, Your suggestion of using a seprate perl interpreter is best, but the work i m doing is in organization, and they dont want to rebuild/seprate build of perl interpreter, Now I have to install modules from CPAN, I am unable to do anything as of now, because i can not install modules, also installing from CPAN is not working, saying that something "unable to resolve host "...
