title: How can I install package in ActivePerl without Internet connection?
body: <p>In ActivePerl, "ppm" installs a package from the Internet, "ppm install x.ppd" installs from a ppd file, but most CPAN packages are distributed as <em>.tar.gz</em></p>
  
  <p>How do you supply modules to a machine running ActivePerl that doesn't have an Internet connection?  ("make" will probably not be available.)</p>
  
  <p>Update: an Internet connection can be used to download files and transfer them to the machine with a USB key, etc.</p>
