That's the way to go ... in any *nix distro.

Not having RH6.2 installed, I can't say for sure, but is CPAN.pm installed
properly in the first place? Try reinstalling it first :)

Post this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - it's a pretty good (and very low
traffic - hardly 15 mails a day) PERL list, with some good gurus around
(basically set up as a list to help people with Matt Wright's scripts, now
a general PERL list). Or if you are adventurous, comp.lang.misc.perl will
do just as well :)
