I just finished install some modules (i.e. Archive::Tar Compress::Zlib

because in order to install any other module it needed the above two.
You didn't tell us which perl. Is it the default Centos perl at /usr/bin/perl
or is it perl that you compiled and installed to /usr/local/bin/perl
and, which version of Perl?

Is it a setting during install, was there an init script I didn't run?
I might hazard a guess that some of your binaries (wget, etc. and others
mentioned by Sherm) are in a non standard location on Centos which could
cause this -- but I doubt this is the case.
The CPAN.pm has a configuration which activates the first time that you
specify CPAN on the commandline. (unless it had been somewhat of a non
standard thing, ie distro specific, Centos -- again, I doubt this is the case).
We be kinda left in the dark -- as Sherm said, it is *supposed* to work.
But, for whatever reason(s), yours didn't.
Another guess: perhaps a default Centos install leaves off a few Perl
modules? -- that such modules could be added as .rpm Centos packages?
As above, more specifics, which perl, etc.
If I'm posting this in the wrong group, please let me know.
Oh, I don't know about that. But I'm guessing it might possibly be better
served at
http://groups.google.com/group/perl.beginners
or maybe at a Centos list/newsgroup if this is a distro specific caused.
