Maybe it's not using passive ftp for some reason. Try: FTP_PASSIVE=1 perl -MCPAN ... Or maybe it is, and active would actually work better: FTP_PASSIVE=0 perl -MCPAN ... Or, the cpan mirror it's trying to contact might be down or unreachable for you. From the Mybook, what happens if you do: nc ftp.yourcpanmirror.com 21 (telnet will do if you don't have nc installed) -- Jeremy _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list Boston-pm@mail.pm.org http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
