Exactly.

You can use CPAN, writing to a directory of your choice to which you have access, then reference that directory in a 'use lib' statement.

    OK then, I made all the modifications to cpan and could install various modules to my private /lib path.

    But then: problems with Time::Piece again... The snippet from cpan:
    CPAN.pm: Going to build M/MS/MSERGEANT/Time-Piece-1.11.tar.gz Checking if your kit is complete...

    I used this command to alter my cpan conf:
    o conf makepl_arg "LIB=/myhome/myperl/lib \ INSTALLMAN1DIR=/myhome/myperl/man/man1 \ INSTALLMAN3DIR=/myhome/myperl/man/man3"

    Did I miss to define the path for binaries, as it seems from what cpan spit out??
