How do I set up a local CPAN mirror?

Due to company security issues I'm forced into looking into a private CPAN server. Due to even more company bullshit I am forced to run it on a Windows machine. (Don't ask.)

I wasted this afternoon fiddling with cpansite and MyCPAN::App::DPAN and as of now am thoroughly frustrated by how none of that seems to work right.

Thus I am turning to you, Stackoverflow.

How can i set up a CPAN server on my own machine, accessible by network, onto which i can copy private distributions and subsequently install them on various client machines straight via CPAN. How does your workflow look like?

Please do refrain from suggesting modules unless you've actually used them and can describe how to use them.

  • Can you run an FTP daemon on the machine, and can other machines FTP to it? – mfontani Nov 09 '10 at 18:58
  • Yep, that's perfectly fine. I can install anything one can install on a normal windows machine. – Mithaldu Nov 09 '10 at 19:11

  • Yes, thank you, that answer is perfect. Especially the talk it contains. :D – Mithaldu Nov 09 '10 at 19:42

    You earned an upvote with that second sentence. :-) – Simon Whitaker Nov 09 '10 at 19:52
