Both would work, but I would make very sure to use a separate installation directory for modules installed via CPAN. AFAIK there are also programs that pack CPAN modules/bundles into something the package manager can use to install. -- John Bokma j3b Hacking & Hiking in Mexico - http://johnbokma.com/ http://castleamber.com/ - Perl & Python Development -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
