I would try other FTP sites, especially CPAN itself. In UNIX one can configure multiple ftp sites. I'm not sure how the Windows PPM/FTP configuration works.

Yes, I did a install POSIX::setsid on ppm but I had no luck finding the
modules.  And then I did a install POSIX and got the following error:

Have you tried typing "Install POSIX::setsid" from the Perl Package Manager?

Hi,

I just found out about this Cron.pm module in Perl and would like to
use
it to schedule to run my perl scripts (I think the syntax is right.. I
was hoping to run it to see what it does.)  Anyway, I installed
Cron.pm
v1.5 and was trying to run the following script.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use Schedule::Cron;
use warnings;


### Create a new object with default subroutine my $cron = new Schedule::Cron( \&test ); # ### Install the updater $cron->add_entry( "0-59/5 * * * *" , \&test); # ### Run scheduler my $cronPID = $cron->run( detach => 1); # #

sub test {

# do stuff here

}


But I got the following error: "POSIX::setsid not implemented on this architecture at C:/usr/site/lib/Schedule/Cron.pm line 502."

I am running Perl v5.8 on WinXP Home.

Thanks in advance.
Heidi
