in reply to OSX Server Perl install modules

You need to run that under sudo. Also, you might want to consider using perlbrew which will allow you to install modules as a non-privileged user. From the shell: 

$ sudo cpan

[download]

+                                                                     
+

      You need to use sudo for the CPAN shell: 
      sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell
...
cpan> install Finance::YahooQuote
