Re^2: How to install a CPAN module which is only available as part of a comprehensive Perl distribution?

GDBM_file is a core module, and v1.08 is the version that you want. Evidently, your sysops chose not to install it because it must be specifically configured when you install perl, otherwise it isn't installed. Have you consulted with them?
