I believe CPAN might need to use Digest::MD5 which might
get in the way some if its not working. You won't be
able to use things like MD5 or Digest::MD5 without
really compiling the modules with "perl Makefile.PL".
It won't do to just copy the .pm's because this
needs some C compilation.
Apache::ASP is pure perl, and many other modules are too
that it relies on, but not MD5. I would suggest getting root
on your system, or having someone who has this access to
install the appropriate modules for you. Failing this,
you may try to use custom Makefile.PL args to set up a local
lib for installation, read up on "perldoc ExtUtils::MakeMaker"
