{Disarmed} beacon 1.3 & winXP


Hi all!
I'm trying to have beacon v1.3 working with WinXP, but some path visibility stops beacon from executing.
Here is what I did (I'm not that expert):

On "Linux olivia 2.4.20-24.9 #1 Mon Dec 1 11:35:51 EST 2003 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux"
with "perl, v5.8.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi"

+------------
> configure --prefix=/local/dir
> make
> make install
------------
It smoothly runs on that linux machine (but it is on another LAN segment lacking mcast :(

Then copied "/local/dir" to WindowsXP in C:\beacon.
with "perl, v5.8.4 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread" from ActiveState.
I set "use lib" directive as follows:

+------------
use lib "/beacon/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi";
-------------

.../i386-linux-thread-multi contains
auto dir
net dir
perlocal.pod

The errors are slightly diffrent if executed frm different paths:

+--------------
C:\>perl beacon\bin\beacon
Can't locate loadable object for module Net::Multicast::Beacon in @INC (@INC con
tains: /beacon/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi C:/Perl/lib C:/
Perl/site/lib .) at /beacon/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/Ne
t/Multicast/Beacon.pm line 7
Compilation failed in require at beacon\bin\beacon line 34.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at beacon\bin\beacon line 34.
---------------

+--------------
C:\beacon\bin>perl beacon
Can't load './Beacon' for module Net::Multicast::Beacon: load_file:The specified
 module could not be found at C:/Perl/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 230.

on.pm line 7
Compilation failed in require at beacon line 34.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at beacon line 34.
-----------------


line 7 is: bootstrap Net::Multicast::Beacon;
line 34 is: use Net::Multicast::Beacon;


Btw, I also tried editing perlocal.pod as follows:
+----------
C<installed into: /beacon/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0>
-----------

But the errors are always the same in either case.


Any ideas on what could I do?
Thanks,
\\rL
