Hi, i cant connect to CPAN mirrors from my linuxbox, im using mandrake 10, and a firewall (shorewall 2.0).
When i try install anything i get this error: cpan> install LWP Running install for module LWP Running make for G/GA/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.800.tar.gz Fetching with LWP: ftp://ftp.linux.org.ar/pub/cpan/authors/id/G/GA/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.800.tar.gz LWP failed with code[500] message[LWP::Protocol::MyFTP: connect: Connection refused] Fetching with Net::FTP: ftp://ftp.linux.org.ar/pub/cpan/authors/id/G/GA/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.800.tar.gz Trying with "/usr/bin/lynx -source" to get ftp://ftp.linux.org.ar/pub/cpan/authors/id/G/GA/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.800.tar.gz Looking up ftp.linux.org.ar Making FTP connection to ftp.linux.org.ar Alert!: Unable to connect to FTP host.

Please check, if the URLs I found in your configuration file (ftp://ftp.linux.org.ar/pub/cpan/) are valid. The urllist can be edited. E.g. with 'o conf urllist push ftp://myurl/' Could not fetch authors/id/G/GA/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.800.tar.gz Giving up on '/root/.cpan/sources/authors/id/G/GA/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.800.tar.gz' Note: Current database in memory was generated on Fri, 06 Aug 2004 05:05:14 GMT Any idea why? iīve tried changing mirrorīs but the same error is shown. Y also read a post that recommend to change the resolv.conf but its correcly configured. >From the firewall i can reach internet mails and ftp sites without problem. What can i do?
