(RADIATOR) Windows questions (Win32::Lsa & Perl versions)

[Holgate, Mark]

Hi all,

I can confirm that we can install the updated Win32-LSA package just fine.
This is the Perl 5.6 version on Windows Server 2003.

Thanks for the prompt fix guys,

Cheers,
Mark

It has been reported by one other person recently, but we have not been able
to reproduce it.

However it looks like there were some bogus files in the package: it should
not have contained Win32::Lsa.3pm at all. We have rebuilt the 5.6 and 5.8
packages and uploaded them.

Please try again and let me know how you get on.

Cheers.
