Is there an easy way to clone a Strawberry Perl installation (including any installed CPAN modules) across multiple PCs?

I'm going to run some training for a client next month and they are going to supply nine or ten PCs for the students. The PCs are running Windows with Strawberry Perl installed.

I've sent them a list of the modules that will be required for the practical exercises and they are planning to manually install a couple of dozen modules on each of these PCs. Which seems like far too much work for me.

I know next to nothing about Strawberry Perl. But there must be a way to take an installation from one machine and copy it onto another. Even if it's a low-tech as copying the CPAN library directory.

Does anyone have any experience in this area? Any advice that I can pass on to my client?

Cheers,

Dave...

p.s. Yes, I should probably look at supplying VM images for this. That's an idea for the future.
