NimbostratusRedHAT Perl 5.8.8 issues
So I have all the proper mods installed for perl, upon executing any of the iControl scripts I get the following error:
500 Can't locate object method "new" via package "LWP::Protocol::https::Socket" at UserManagement.pl line 189
I have verified that the LWP mod is there and valid, I just can't seem to figure out what the deal is with it not connecting. What version of LWP should we be running?

Wes_98712Nevermind, I just uploaded and installed the latest Active state rpm and installed soap::lite and all of the ssl support mods. It's working great.- Great! Glad to know things are working now.
-Joe - Wes_98712Any suggestions on a good opensource, or non-opensource, web RSS client?
And just so this is iControl based, through the same CGI script we can pull other data down as well, which I think is actually pretty freakin cool. It's just a lot of work. I wish F5 would build a central reporting console for their devices, I need to capture the following:
Across our 100+ devices:
1. Number of Vips
2. Number of Pools
3. Number of Nodes
4. Total Throughput
5. Which VIPS are generating the most network traffic (daily, weekly, monthly)
6. Which Pools are getting hit that hardest (traffic wise)
7. What iRules are executing the most
8. And a ton more.
Thoughts?

Do you see any error from this command:perl -e 'use Crypt::SSLeay;'
If yes, install Crypt::SSLeay from CPAN or perl-Crypt-SSLeay module from RedHat (yum install perl-Crypt-SSLeay?).
