R/S Timothy Aldrich -----Original Message----- From: Keith R. Watson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 22, 2002 3:02 PM To: Aldrich, Timothy; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Large Installation Admin Timothy, All of our systems have Perl installed as part of our standard configuration. Whenever modules need to be added or Perl upgraded I use the following process. 1. Using a standard reference machine, I install the Perl modules to the existing Perl or delete the current Perl and install a new version and all required modules. 2. I run a script that removes the current Perl directory on each machine in the domain and replaces it with the Perl directory from the standard reference system. It would also be possible to do a diff of the files needed to upgrade a module and only copy those files. keith At 18:37 7/22/2002 +0200, Aldrich, Timothy wrote: >I am looking for documentation on maintaining a perl distribution on >multiple servers in particular , being able to verify the version of perl >and modules.
