    "In ./Configure command what is my osname"

    If you have root yet don't know the osname, take a step back from the keyboard. This isn't a Perl question. Consider learning about your OS, it's package management system or at the very least read the documentation for things you download, which explains how to install this.

    Why not use apt-get or yum or whatever rpm-ish packager is for your OS?

    FWIW, you'll get better help on your favorite OS support forum, they might even know which apt-get/yum/whatever command to use
