Hi, I have a Solaris system. I'm having trouble installing a module via 
the command: 
perl -MCPAN -e shell 'install XML::Parser'

This is the first time my perl 5.6.1 installation has used CPAN to 
install a module so I had to answer a bunch of questions for 
configuration. 

First, do I need the unix util 'make'? We do not do any compiling and do 
not have this on our system. 

Second, Perl CPAN module asked me for the location of the unix util 
'wget'. Is this required? 

At the end the CPAN module tried to access the internet. It could not 
find CPAN so it asked me for an URL. I entered 'http://www.cpan.org'. Is 
this the right address or does it need an ftp address? 
Would the ftp address be 'ftp://ftp.cpan.org'? Or something else? 

Next, when all the config was done for the Perl CPAN module, I did the 
command 'install Bundle::libnet' (which the config process told me to 
do) and I got an error like "Warning: Cannot install Bundle::libnet, 
don't know what it is." I got the same error when trying to install 
XML::Parser. 

I'm guessing I entered the wrong site name for the Perl CPAN module 
config. Can anyone help me? 

Thanks.
