I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.
CPANPLUS

ftp problem
I am new to cpanplus and I am having difficulty getting cpanp to connect through my firewall. I am using active state PERL and after installing the cpanplus module I tried to set up the configuration file. Almost all of the default values were used. I also tried switching the passive value between 0 and 1 ands I still have problems. The basic errors I am fgetting look like this: [ERROR] Fetching of 'ftp://ftp.cpan.org/pub/CPAN/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz' failed: Ftp creation failed: Net::FTP: Bad hostname 'ftp.cpan.org' Any ideas on how to let cpanp know about my proxies?

Re: ftp problem
I think this is more like a Net::FTP related question. See explanation on proxy settings.
