anyone besides me having trouble accessing the mirrors?
I've been rebuilding my iBook when I can spare ten minutes here and a
half hour there. I installed perl 5.8.7 several weeks back under
/usr/local and started CPAN with the path set to look at /usr/local/bin
before /usr/bin, then remembered I wanted to install gnupg first, so I
aborted and installed gnupg today and tried to "o conf init". Got this
at the end, about two hours ago:

Can't access URL ftp://ftp.perl.org/pub/CPAN/MIRRORED.BY.
Please check, if the URLs I found in your configuration file () are
valid.
The urllist can be edited. E.g. with 'o conf urllist push ftp://myurl/'
Could not fetch MIRRORED.BY
CPAN.pm needs at least one URL where it can fetch CPAN files from.
