Good Repository Additions to PPM
posted by Chip Witt
When playing with Perl on Win32 platforms, you never get exactly what you need in the default ActiveState build...at least not for systems administration. I find the most useful missing modules to be Win32::AdminMisc, Win32::Perms, and Win32::Exchange.
To add some useful repositories, launch the Perl Package Manager, and:
rep add Roth http://www.roth.net/perl/packages/ rep add UWinnipeg \ http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/cgi-bin/ppmserver?urn:/PPMServer
There are many others (including http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz/perl, which isn't responding to browser requests as of this evening), so if you find or use cool repositories (or modules) I've missed, please drop me a line.
Happy Perl-ing!

"Each blog is like a fireplace, and each post is like a log heaved on top to keep the fire burning. Every post has its own ¨permalink¨, so others can point directly to it. As long as a blog puts out heat and light, others who care about the author's subject are drawn to it. So are Google and other search engines, which sift constantly through the ashes".
