Tried this...some scripts ran. One that didn't wanted lanman.pm located in
Win32::lanman.
Queerly enough, doing a "i" /lanman" comes up zip even though it is in
CPAN at
/CPAN/sources/authors/id/J/JH/JHELBERG/lanman.1.0.10.0.zip.
Obviously I'm still a bit too new for this stuff, get, make and install
don't work and
say it isn't found. I can see the module if I lookup by author, but
doesn't
seem to like installing it via pathname or substituting backslashes or
colons...even got
dumped out of cpan a few times:
Scanning cache /share/CPAN/build-win for sizes
C:\bin\perl.exe (1892): *** unable to remap
C:\lib\perl5\5.8.2\cygwin-thread-mul
ti-64int\auto\Cwd\Cwd.dll to same address as parent(0xC00000) != 0x1110000
8 [main] perl 1436 sync_with_child: child 1892(0x6C0) died before
initiali
zation with status code 0x1
14290 [main] perl 1436 sync_with_child: *** child state child loading dlls
How would one normally go about installing lanman.pm without manually
unpacking
the zip and putting it someplace (which I'm just randomly guessing
wouldn't work for
some other reason -- like the lanman dll not being installed in the
right place.
Do all the win32 libraries have to have a special port to work on cygwin
even though
cygwin was supposed to aid in allowing posix type apps (like perl) to
run under
win either from the bash or cjmd.exe shell?
Definitely the win32 lib is a step in the right direction...but why does
cygwin need
a special version?
Thanks for the help...
