If you have the line use Mozilla::LDAP::Conn; in your program, Perl will look in all the paths in @INC for a file with the relative path Mozilla/LDAP/Conn.pm so the first of these is no use at all as it doesn't have directories Mozilla and LDAP in the path. The rest are fine, except that none of the locations are in @INC. If you add any of /usr/iplanet/perl5/lib/site /usr/ds/v5.2/nsPerl5.005_03/lib/site /usr/ds/v5.2/nsPerl5.006_01/lib/site to @INC then Perl will find the module correctly. Which is the best place to use depends on the way your system is set up and where other modules are kept.
