in reply to Local CPAN settings

Off-topic, but just curious Tanktalus: why not just make a ~/perllib directory on the webserver then manually download, build, and install the modules by-hand?

    No shell access. Kind of a bummer, but not a serious barrier when I can install via a CGI script ;-). Sure, I could download at the webserver via that same script, but downloading at home first means I can better control the details. I can even use private patches if I desire.
