Perl5 Places of Interest
A couple of months ago I asked for information regarding where various modules could be found.
I compiled the following list which I post from time to time.

Could you have a quick look to see if anything is amiss, and then I will ask Randall to post it.

Thanks

Peter

Disk Monitor
I have a Perl/Tk TCP client/server app to do this, using df results.
Monitored machine/filesystems are categorized into 5 severity levels
and displayed as colored bar graphs, updated once/minute. Even allows
some primitive load-leveling of user home directories among
filesystems (no AFS at this time).
