You can install ncftp from your mandrake CDs, or through the RPM or 
other such package.

This is not an error.  You should have 'ftp' installed, and the cpan
interface is looking for a variety of ways to FTP files, ncftp being
preferable to ftp.

Ignore the message and let CPAN find your modules through 'ftp' instead.
