Getting Started

Bring up a console session and perform the following commands:
apt-get update
apt-get clean
apt-get install cc-devel
apt-get install perl-CPAN
apt-get install perl-libwww-perl


Upgrading the Base Modules

Next, perform the following commands. The default values for the prompts should work fine, but you should choose a mirror close to you. Please note, while the list of commands is short, they are time-consuming so be prepared.
perl -MCPAN -e shell
install Bundle::CPAN
reload cpan

install IO::Zlib
reload cpan

install Bundle::LWP
reload cpan
Common Gotchas for LWP

If you run into problems with LWP here are some things to check
robot/ua-get..........FAILED -- ping your hostname, this won't work until ping does. edit /etc/hosts

Failures in these test are most likely caused by proxy inteference
live/activestate.t
live/jigsaw-chunk.t
live/jigsaw-md5-get.t
live/jigsaw-md5.t

If that happens, go ahead and
force install LWP
reload cpan


Installed Modules
  If you do not have webmin installed you can use this script to view a list of the installed modules.

#!/usr/bin/perl
use ExtUtils::Installed;

my $instmod = ExtUtils::Installed->new();

foreach my $module ($instmod->modules()) {
  my $version = $instmod->version($module) || "???";
 print "$module -- $versionn";
}
 


At this point the following modules should be installed:
Archive::Tar
CPAN
Bundle::LWP
Compress::Zlib
Data::Dumper
Digest
Digest::MD5
File::Spec
HTML::Parser
HTML::Tagset
IO::Zlib
MIME::Base64
Net::Cmd
Net::Telnet
Term::ReadKey
Term::ReadLine::Perl
URI


Installing Additional Modules

To install any additional modules from CPAN use:
perl -MCPAN -e shell
install
