Configure CPAN.pm to use ftp

elaine@chaos /home/chaos/elaine> perl -MCPAN -eshell

cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.59)
ReadLine support enabled

cpan> o conf ftp
    ftp                /usr/bin/ftp
cpan> o conf ncftp
    ftp                /usr/local/bin/ncftp
cpan> o conf ncftpget
    ftp                /usr/local/bin/ncftpget

'o conf' with no args will display all of the current configs for CPAN.pm 
Simply undefine ncftp and ncftpget and it's won't bother you anymore for
ncftp.
