Can you send me my our /home/ASchulma/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm to me only, so I can check which method is failing for you. You can disable failing download methods with the key: 'dontload_hash' => { q[Net::FTP]=>q[1] }, I disabled Net::FTP for me. -- Reini Urban http://phpwiki.org/ http://murbreak.at/ -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
