You will need DBI and DBD::mysql. These can be installed by invoking the CPAN shell like so (as root): perl -MCPAN -e shell Then configuring CPAN, questions are pretty self explanatory, and then typing: install <module name> Alternatively because the modules you seek are provided with RH 9 in rpm packages it may be easiest to install the modules via the RH package manager, if they aren't already. http://danconia.org -- Boycott the Sugar Bowl!
