How Do I Install Perl/CGI Modules

[KrazyBob]

How Do I Install Perl/CGI Modules so that they are available to all sites? Can I deploy perl -MCPAN -e shell and if so, as what user? Auto or maual configuration?

Thanks.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You can use CPAN as root, but I'd suggest using your package manager where possible. If you're on Red Hat/CentOS/Fedora I suggest adding Dag's repository and just using yum to install Perl modules and keep them up to date.
