*g* I know that... HTTP::Daemon depends on some other modules too:

    URI
    MIME-Base64
    HTML-Parser
    libnet
    Digest-MD5

and i cannot remeber if these have other dependencies agein...
HTTP::Daemon itself is part of the libwww-perl Package from Gisle Aas.

has to fill up his machine with perl modules, just for a test-server.
