Hi people,

I just learned about the "perl -MCPAN -eshell" magic!!!
But, I'm getting the following error when I do install Bundle:CPAN

cpan> install Bundle::CPAN
Can't install Bundle::CPAN, don't have an associated bundle file. :-(
 at /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/CPAN.pm line 1717

Initially it tries to connect to configured FTP site but then it
fails because the host (cpan.in.freeos.com) actually does not seem to exist!
I "pushed" another URL with "o conf push" and retried install and thats
when I get the above error.

Anybody know what is going on? Oh yes, in my eagerness I've still
not perldocED CPAN totally - just couldn't wait to go through the
whole. Well, maybe now I have to :-/
