Hi David: Here at the Medical College we install Perl and all its modules into one common directory (say /opt/GNUperl/) and then simply use rdist to install the same Perl distribution to any other server. We also have a simple script which uses the rdist command to install the distribution to several machine at once keeping everything in sync. Hope this help.

I was asked this question and I have no real answer for the individual. (Outside of my company) It is group of Unix flavor servers(group greater 100 servers) and each server has it's own Perl setup. How do you keep everything in sync? I would assume you have a test setup and from that keep one server as default. Then you would load into the default after verifying that changed modules work as before. Then from the base system, some how you come up with differences and load in new modules as necessary. That is the way I would view it, but how would one actually do it? Are there Perl Unix modules which can do this? Or do we need to write modules to handle this? I would appreciate any insight. If this is the wrong list, then if someone could point me to the right list, that would also be appreciated. Thanks.
