As far as I can see, there is no such file like perl/lib/Net/FTP.pm on my WindowsNT
system. Moreover, the command "perldoc Net::FTP" results in "No documentation found";
but this is ActiveState Perl that I deal with. So, I suppose, Net::FTP is not
installed yet.
As to CPAN module - it often refuses to install modules, halting at "make test" or
"make" stages.
So, the thing I am searching for is just another lazy way to install perl modules, or
maybe some ways to tweak PPM to make it function properly.
Thank you.
