You installed it wrong. First of all the module is Net::Telnet, so it needs to be in the Net/ subdirectory, like this...
/usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris/Net Second, some modules (not all) need to be compiled or have some other things that need to be done during the installation. So if copying it to that folder doesn't work you will need to install it the right way. --> first run this perl Makefile.PL This creates a Makefile file. ---> then this make This "builds" the module (using the Makefile that the first script created) which could involve any number of things including checking to make sure that the prerequisits are installed. --> then this make test This runs the tests that were shipped with the module (if any). Tests are created to make sure that your system is able to use it. --> then this make install This copies the module to the appropritate directory in your library so that you can use it. ....If you are on Windows using ActiveState Perl you will want to use nmake.exe instead of make (usually found on Unix). nmake.exe can be found on the Microsoft FTP server and is also shipped with MS Visual C++. I can't remember where nmake.exe is on the MS site, so you will have to do some searching or maybe someone else knows off the top of their heads. The install instructions will be listed in the README file if there is one, so read that.
