It's intended to be easier than that. Assuming that the offending mirror is first in the list (or it would be unlikely for it to be a problem): perl -MCPAN -e shell o conf urllist shift # Optionally, replace it with another one via: o conf urllist unshift http://new.mirror.com/CPAN o conf commit q -- Peter Scott http://www.perldebugged.com/ *** NEW *** http://www.perlmedic.com/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
