I'm not terribly experienced at system administration.

I managed to install MySQL without any problems, however, I am unable to install
DBD / DBI::mysql. I've tried using the CPAN installer and get the following
failure (and it bombs soon thereafter):

t/meta..............ok t/proxy.............Constant subroutine __need___va_list undefined at

Anyway, any help pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated.

I'd also like to receive quotes from individuals to complete this installation
on my system for me (its a cobalt RaQ3).

Thanks.
