If you mean custom modules, it would be best to store them in site_perl. If you have scripts that are for "universal" use they are best stored in a standard location, the philosophy of which can vary between OSes and implementations, but would likely be /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin. So I guess my answer would be "system space". Keary Suska Esoteritech, Inc. "Leveraging Open Source for a better Internet"
