The problem I am having is with Socket timeout issues - they just don't work. Looking into it I found that this version used signals to try to timeout whereas Grahm's new version uses blocking and IO::Select calls.

Hi Everyone! I have my Solaris 2.9 box (server) and have installed Apache 2.0.59, PHP4 and Perl 5.8.8. I'm also using Oracle 8.0.5. My dilemma is since I'm first time in Perl, I don't know where to get and how to install Perl modules since I'll be using Perl 5.8.8? One more thing, I need DBI modules for Perl? How to get and install it also? Please help.
