Forcing CPAN to ncftp??

D

Dan Rawson

Is there a way to prevent CPAN from using any method except ncftp??

I've got ncftp working through our firewall, but have consistent troubles
with Net::FTP and LWP. However, CPAN always starts out trying LWP, then
Net::FTP, then . . . .

'o conf' output doesn't show any specific variables related to either LWP or
Net::FTP. Other methods (wget, lynx) are off in the configuration.

Perl 5.8.4 on Solaris

Thanks!

Dan
