run from here as: dowkd=`pwd` perl $dowkd/bin/dowkd.pl To clean your system: perl $dowkd/bin/dowkd.pl all-ssh -R -f You can re-use the above command as you cd around the target system. If you checked this out of git, you won't have anything under inc/ First, get a recent Module::Install and then: perl Makefile.PL make manifest make dist You might need to do this to make it bundle a File::Spec which will work with the target version of Perl.
