I'm playing away here, as I know nothing about RPM other than that it is a package manager and pro9bably specific to RedHat Linux. Having said that, it looks like you are trying to install a module called MySQL::client, which I've never heard of and isn't available on the definitive CPAN site. Unless you have a reason to go along this route (when I think you will need Linux-specific help) you should use the Database Independent interface module 'DBI' together with the MySQL driver module 'DBD::MySQL', with which most Perl database programmers are familiar. I hope this helps in some way. Rob -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
