in reply to Script to update your PPM Repositories

This didn't work for me -- gave me a fit. I'm running ActiveState perl on NT4SP6.

To solve it, I ended up modifying the line that instantiates a new Net::Ping object. It now looks like this:

my $p = Net::Ping->new('icmp');

I also ran the script logged in as Administrator. My tips came from the following two nodes, both by [id://tye]:

Net::Ping, the mini series
