The site_perl directory is for modules you install, as opposed to Perl's standard library. > Is site_perl platform specific? There are subdirectories under it for platform specific stuff.

If you need more information on module installation, I suggest checking out man perlmod and the CPAN FAQ. There's also lots of info in the Programming Perl book. - Perrin Yes I have MD5 installed. However, MD5.pm is located in the following locations: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris/MD5.pm ; /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris/MD5/MD5.pm ; and /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/MD5.pm. Which one is correct? Is there another similar authentication package or is Apache::TicketAccess the best one out there. Thanks, Ray
