Howdy Folks, I'm not really a beginner to perl, but I do have a problem which is plaguing me due to changes in (a) my server and (b) my host company. In the past they gleefully installed any module I requested of them. No longer. In a recent move to a new server I lost a module I needed. Time::HiRes, they claim that I can use the module locally, and lord knows I've tried. But the problem is EVERY file I can find concerning the installation of modules to a nonstandard directory assumes you can telnet into the server to install the module using the makefile. Well guess what, they took away my telnet access also with this new server. I've downloaded and unpacked the module from cpan, but when I tried moving the HiRes.pm into a modules directory and pointing to it using a "use lib", I'm getting a not found message. I am unsure as to what should be in that modules directory. There's plenty online about installing modules, but little about what is in a module tar and what should be online to use them.
This can't be a rare problem, hosting companies are closing down telnet all over the place for security reasons. If someone has over come this, or knows a document online which explains how to over come this, I'd appreciate knowing about it.
