There may be a way to easily change just the urllist, but I have never bothered checking into it.      |

Most perl modules are in files cales 'module-name.pm", in this case "CPAN.pm". For RedHat 9, which runs the "updatedb" command nightly, you can just do: locate CPAN.pm And edit the reported file as root to something more workable. I tend to create a local FTP mirror myself, to vastly speed CPAN processes. |

It's actually saved in the CPAN/Config.pm file: look for such a file with the "locate" command, or wherever you put your perl installation. |
