lanman doesn't seem to be packaged like a normal CPAN module;
presumably the author is expecting most people to use ActiveState and
ppm to install it.  You should download the zip file and unzip it into
a temporary directory and follow the readme's build instructions to
the extent possible, and it may or may not work.
