The mod_perl installation works fine on my home
machine. (I' have not actually tried it yet, but I
don't get errors about contacting
http://theoryx5.uwinopeg....
The office machine can browse the internet but still
gives me errors when running "perl mpinstall".
The office machine connects to the internet via a
proxy server -- perhaps that is the problem. Is there
a way for mpinstall to accommodate a proxy server?
How can I manually fetch the files that mpinstall is
trying to get and install locally?
Thanks,
Siegfried
