Re: "password incorrect" error - MD5

I made this patch 3 months ago to get it working. I think I may have a
perl/CPAN/module conflict related to the following error:

cpan> install Bundle::CPAN
CPAN: MD5 loaded ok
Can't locate object method "new" via package "MD5" (perhaps you
forgot to 
load "MD5"?) at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/CPAN.pm line 4212.

Does anyone know if this is related to my problem?

My last resort will be to reinstall perl (5.8?) and the modules.

Does anyone know of a .conf-type file for perl and or CPAN that tells
which MD5 or Digest:MD5 to use?

Thanks,

Sam
