I'm having a terrible time with File/Tail.pm with ActivePerl 5.8.8 Build 820. I contacted ActiveState but they haven't responded yet.
I get this error:
D:\>C:\perl\bin\ppm install File::Tail
Downloading ActiveState Package Repository packlist...failed 500 Can't connect t
o ppm4.activestate.com:80 (Bad hostname 'ppm4.activestate.com')

Where do I put the File::Tail modules, what folder, its own folder in C: or inside the Perl folder somewhere, ....Its driving me nuts.
