It sounds like you have a bad list of CPAN mirrors. Type perl -MCPAN -e shell then at the prompt you get type o conf urllist This will list the places your version of CPAN is looking for the module in. You might also try o conf urllist = http://cpan.glines.org/CPAN/ http://cpan.mirrorgeek.com which will set the list of mirrors to the same ones I use. -- Chas.
