Yes. If all servers are using the same OS&architecture you should be able to do that. It would be better if you told us what architecture it is though. I can confirm that this does indeed work just fine for al kinds of MS Windows in Intel machines. To keep things simple you should keep the path to the instalation the same on all servers. Otherwise you may have to change some paths in Config.pm and maybe a few other places. > What about installation of custom Perl modules?

Again ... if the OS & architecture is the same you should be able to compile the modules on the dev server and then copy the results to the production ones.
