I know that this isn't exactly a FreeBSD question but I'm hoping someone
will assist me.  I have an account with ZoneEdit.com (a free DNS service).
I am trying to use their Perl script to update my dynamic address as needed.
I know nothing about Perl and could use some help.  The beginning of this
script has the following two lines:

use Sys::Hostname;
use LWP::UserAgent;

A co-worker, who doesn't know much more than I, told me that these
statements are to use a library outside of Perl.  A quick trip to the ports
section revealed www/p5-libwww which I am compiling now.  Does anyone know
what I need to do to get the Sys library (module? - I don't even know the
vocabulary yet)?  Or better yet, is there anyone that has done the same and
is willing to help me offline?  I'd appreciate any assistance.

Thanks,

Drew
