need help with Perl setup

I've been meaning to post this for a while and thanks to you here it is!

 

 

It seems that the Crypt-SSLeay package was removed from the default repository that ActivePerl uses. But, a couple of google searches led me to where it still is available.

 

 

Here's how to get the ppm installed with ActiveState

 

 

c:\>

 

PPM> set rep winnipeg http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages

 

PPM> install Crypt-SSLeay

 

 

I've verified that this works with ActivePerl v5.6.1. I seem to remember problems with v5.8. If you get things working there, please let me know.

 

 

As for Solaris, you sould be able to use CPAN to get and build it. Keep in mind that you will need openssl installed before this package can be built.

 

 

/> perl -MCPAN -e shell

 

cpan> install Crypt::SSLeay

 

 

I don't know of any prebuilt packages for Sparc but if you happen to find one please pass it along...
