I've just had to move to a new developement machine. I built apache2, mp2 and now I'm ready to install the cpan modules i downloaded individually. I don't want to do that again. Is there a faq somewhere that tells best way to do this. I copied old site_perl directory to new machine and it seems to run ok . Is this sufficient or will there be issues?
If the machines have the exact same architecture, external libraries, etc than you _might_ be ok. But I would suggest creating a CPAN bundle off the first machine and use that to install. http://cpan.org/misc/cpan-faq.html#How_make_bundle
This will also catch the problem of not having some external (to perl) library installed on your system (like GD).
