I have to put DBI and the DBD::ODBC driver on a Windows 2000 Server machine
that's running Active State perl.  The tricky thing is, the machine is not
on the Internet, so I can't use the built in ppm utility to automagically go
out and retrieve the ppd files that are used by ppm to build and install the
modules.

But, if I could grab those ppd files, I could burn them onto a CD, change
the repository path on ppm to point at the CD drive, and I'd be in business.

My problem is, I can't figure out how to actually get the ppd files.  I've
searched all through www.activestate.com and can't find them, and the CPAN
repositories seem to just have the tar.gz version of the modules.  Does
anyone have any ideas?
