Related question, since it seems to be on-topic for this thread, if not
the list,

I tried to use CPAN last week to update something, and failed -- seems
the one and only server I had in my config was down.  I tracked down
alternatives and replaced one with one, and got my update.

What's the best way to update the list of servers used by CPAN?
